Review of Happy!

Happy! (2017–2019)
10/10
Nick Sax is the ultimate anti hero

This show would be solid even without happy in it. That little blue cupcake pooing fella definitely adds to it though. I generally don't like Patton Oswalt, he has one of those faces you just want to punch, but he does a great job as Happy. I guess it's easier to appreciate him when you don't have to look at him.

Meloni kills it and the crudity on this show is outrageous. Wishing someone would pick this back up.

My only criticism is Ritchie Coaster, he is trying too hard and doesn't have the chops to play the villainous role in this show. He tries too hard to be James Gandolfini with a hint of Christopher Walken. The noise he makes with his mouth before he talks a great deal of the time needs to go, if anything, his character is an annoying pest, not a mafia boss and 600 year old other worldly being.

Everything else is solid.

Lili is a great counterpart to Meloni's nut job character, Fischel kills it in his roll, Uber disturbing and the little girl who plays Hailey fills the role well and I don't think anybody would play Sunny Shine quite as perfectly as Fitzgerald, he fully thrust himself into and embraces his character.

For the type of show it is, I have to give it a high 9/10, but closer to 10/10. This show isn't for the faint of heart and is extremely crude and pushes the envelope in more than one way.

Kick back, grab some popcorn {maybe some ganja if it's legal where you're homestead is ;)}, get ready for a demented and slightly certifiable ride and binge the h-e-double hockey sticks out of this little perfectly tasteless gem on Netflix.
