Ranking The Paloni Show: Which Short Should Get A Spin-Off?
8) “Rightbehindyouton”
Joel Haver’s “Rightbehindyouton” is another segment that largely falls flat in the grander context of The Paloni Show. Joel Haver still manages to create a distinct community and an even more well-defined protagonist in the form of its eccentric mayor. “Rightbehindyouton” is short-sighted on The Paloni Show, but it easily feels like the beginning of the trademark shenanigans that fuel a Tom Goes to the Mayor style absurdist experience. This absolutely could have worked on Adult Swim 15 years ago.
There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
