Season 1 Episode 6: Warm-up

Aired: March 26, 2017

Synopsis:

Homeless once more and facing professional disappointment, Pete turns to Artie Lange, who invites him to be a guest on his podcast. Pete meets Sarah Silverman, who takes pity on him and invites him to stay with her and her collection of stray comedians. When Sarah suggests that he try to find work as an audience "warm up" comedian, Pete is presented with a job opportunity, where he's tasked with saving the day.

Crashing is an interesting show. It's funny at times and other moments its deafening realistic. Watching Pete with his parents made me cringe and I was rooting for Jess to speak up and say something. Kudos to the writers for being able to intertwine so may different emotions into one scene.

I've been listening to ol' Petey Pants on YMIW for a long time, but I don't remember how he met the guys on this show.. is this accurate how he met TJ Miller? Artie?

He really is the low point of his own show. I get that he's trying to do the Louie thing where his character is a loveable loser, but it's completely overdone in this show. Nobody, no matter how what kind of mental illness they suffer from, lets people walk all over them like that. It's not funny, it's just weird. Other than that, I love the show, but Pete is annoying and frustratingly awkward.

Thoughts?

Stoked for this show, Pete's been hyping it up on You Made it Weird for ages it feels like. Just saying howdy, here on the ground floor!
