#COVID-19 CATCH UP TV - American Vandal

Going back to 2017, it's over to Netflix with American Vandal.

Like Summer Heights High and Chris Lilley's work, this series is an American mockumentary. Airing for two seasons the show was canned back in 2018. Each season has a new story along with only eight episodes a piece.

Season One is based on a high school prank that left 27 faculty cars vandalized with dicks on them. Dylan Maxwell is accused of the crime by the school. However amateur film makers Peter Maldonado, with help from his friend Sam Ecklund, attempt to uncover who was behind the crime. Was it really Dylan Maxwell?

Season Two follows Peter and Sam at a Catholic private high school after their cafeteria's lemonade is contaminated with maltitol by someone calling themselves "The Turd Burglar." There is a lot of shit talk in season two. Replacing the talk of dicks in season one.


So is this worth a look? Well its a show for having on in the background at best. There is probably better stuff I could be watching but this was well and truly an easy watch. American Vandal has lots of poo and dick jokes making it perfect for a close to 40 year old who enjoys laughing at jokes mainly reserved for 14 year old boys with bad BO.
