And I actually want to see Will Forte and Dave Franco's Hungry Hungry Hippo Movie. The Ike Barinholtz action movie parody has an actual pissing contest and is filmed in widescreen in the neon lit style of F & F, and of course it's about family. It's the details that makes this hilarious. So far in the first three episodes we've had rom-com, a fast and furious parody and musical. The Roshamon style plot has attendees of a 15 year high school reunion telling their "mind movies" after the death of famous pop star/actor Xavier, played by Dave Franco in full douche mode. In the promo Zoë is seen getting candid about her. Second hurrays for the team of Sam Richardson and Ben Schwartz, the amateur sleuths putting together their own investigation aside from officers Tiffany Haddish and John Early. The Afterparty is getting animated with its latest episode on Apple TV+ and we have an exclusive first look at the fun featuring Zoë ( Zoë Chao ). Take a high concept and cram in as much comedy as possible. What The AfterParty reminds me of are their TV efforts like The Last Man On Earth. Sure, there are the Jump Streets, and Spiderman and the Lego Movie, etc etc etc. Second hurrays for the team of Sam Hurray for Lord and Miller. With references to Back to the Future, hypothetical scenarios ("If you fail the bar exam, become a paralegal"), and connections to the show itself and Aniq and Zoe's love story, "Two Shots" is a powerful bop and an emotional journey.Hurray for Lord and Miller. The Afterparty (2022 ) Full Cast & Crew See agents for this cast & crew on IMDbPro Series Directed by Christopher Miller. Elsewhere, Aniq tells Yasper to look into the note more. Brett tries to persuade Detective Danner that he wasn’t trying to escape but refuses to reveal anything unless taken somewhere that Zoe can’t listen. The concept is enticing, especially for a high school reunion who doesn't want to believe in second chances when the first round didn't go well? Second chances are a familiar concept, but "Two Shots" packages the idea in a completely new way, starting with the one-shot philosophy and leading us elegantly toward two. This recap of Apple TV+ series The Afterparty season 1, episode 2, Brett, contains spoilers. I've heard it said before that we get one shot in lifeĪnd even thought that may be true, it's not exactly right 'Ĭause here's a secret: Even thought we get one shot in life, we all get that one shot, twice ![]() What about those of us who missed our shot, didn't rise to the top never became the cream and we just remained the crop? Both songs emphasize the importance of one shot (one opportunity) for a person to change their life forever, but Yasper knows it's not that simple.īut what happens if you choked and you didn't catch your break? If you fail do you bail with your tail between your legs? "Two Shots" is sinfully catchy, its title a nod to Hamilton's "My Shot," and Eminem's "Lose Yourself," which comes through in Lajoie's music and Schwartz's performance. The infectious beat and bass riff fall squarely into Yasper's "How great is this party?" genre of music, with everyone in the gym joining in to celebrate a second shot. Schwartz and Sam Richardson as Aniq are a comedy dream team which might be The Afterparty's greatest gift, and to see them singing and dancing in a high school gym just repackages that perfect pairing. Jon Lajoie wrote the song, as well as "Yeah Sure Whatever" and "Three Dots" later in the episode, but "Two Shots" is our introduction to Yasper's mind movie and it sets a fantastic bar.
