BubbleCAN Review: Fugget About It ‘Fugly American’

Spoilers Below

Jimmy grows increasingly paranoid after being followed by a mysterious man. When this so-called stranger turns out to be FBI agent Rick Chickmagnet (pronounced “chick-magnet” and voiced by Howie Mandel), who is looking for information regarding Jimmy’s old mob cohorts, Jimmy can’t help but cooperate – after Chickmagnet offers to relocate the Falcones to California.

But there is a divide between some of the Falcones who don’t want to disrupt the status quo they have established in Regina, yet the other half can’t wait to get back on American soil.

But when Chickmagnet turns out to have ulterior motives, Jimmy and Uncle Cheech’s lives are in jeopardy, and it’s up to Special Agent Strait McCool to save the day.

Unfortunately, McCool is bedridden after an appendix removal and can’t cater to every single one of Jimmy’s needs.

With a back story regarding Gina’s piggy bank that’s as weak as an ape is strong, this week’s episode proves that Fugget About It isn’t that flawless Canadian series we’ve all have been hoping for, but we still got some laughs and thrills. Perhaps the driest of the second season thus far, let us hope they’re saving the best for last. If not, the first seven episodes were in-your-face-awesome. And let’s keep it that way.
