    That show is some of the most genius content of the last decade.

    Your description way undersells it.

    Kevin Can Fuck Himself is about a woman who wants to kill her husband Kevin because she thinks it’s the only way she’ll ever get it of her marriage.

    Whenever Kevin is in the room it’s lit and filmed like a multi camera sitcom. He says and does horrible things to his wife and the laugh track runs. It’s a really scathing criticism of how sitcom wives are treated.

    But the real genius comes when Kevin and his friends are out of the room. Suddenly it becomes lit and shot as a single camera drama. I absolutely love it. It’s so effective.

      My comment was absolutely an understatement to generate curiosity. I do agree that Kevin Can Fuck Himself is a hidden gem. I’ve read that some people were saying the sitcom element takes them out of moment, but I fear they’re robbing themselves from a great experience by not continuing.
