REVIEW: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF TIM “The Smug Chiropractor; Corporate Disaster”
In the third-season finale, the Boss makes Tim’s race an issue; and a company publicist wants Tim to be Omnicorp’s spokesperson after an environmental catastrophe.
Spoilers Below
THE SMUG CHIROPRACTOR
Tim gets invited to a poker game with The Boss and a bunch of famous people, the coolest of which is Tim Meadows. Meadows is not Tim’s biggest fan, that is until he drops a grand playing poker to the token white guy, but Tim opts to forgive the debt if Meadows shows up to a fundraiser for a chiropractor named Matt of whom earlier in the show Tim offended. But, when Meadows shows up to the event, he gets drunk and tries to do stand-up that eventually ends up in bloodshed.
CORPORATE DISASTER
Omnicorp owns a building that had some sort of an environmental disaster in Bergen County, NJ sending all the low-level employees home…that is except big shot Tim. So much so that the Omnicorp PR team decides to make Tim the face of the company by having him answer a bunch of questions from the press which of course he screws up. However, Rod pretty much saves the day by offering a solution that warrants him a 6-figure bonus. Tim,however has to leave the country with Amy and head to the Caribbean where he gets paid to hang out in a resort all day
Ohhh mannnn, I’m really gonna miss Tim, and this was one hell of a way to go out. The short featuring Tim Meadows was great, but “Corporate Disaster” left me scratching in my head, but in a good way. If Tim is on an island resort, what happens to Stu and Rodney? Is Amy going to be OK with the relocation? What is Tim’s job status, I ask this question because to start of the season he was unemployed, then he gets his job back with a promotion, and now he’s seen as the face of the company which is drawing the ire of both the public and his job. I am voting I hope the show comes back, it doesn’t matter on which network, but obviously with HBO you get certain freedoms you wouldn’t find on Comedy Central or MTV. Its a good show, its funny, its different, but as I mentioned last week I would rather lie to see this show on a Monday or Tuesday night instead of a Friday night. Also, here’s hoping it doesn’t take another two years for this deal to come back and hope to see it soon!
(8.0 out of 10)
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
