The Beech Boys Season 3 | Average Guy TV Review


The Beechwood Estates are in chaos! Dottie (Becky Brown) is dead, Cedric (Matt Tory) is on the run, and the HOA election is still up for grabs, meaning Trey (J.J. Carroll) and Ethan (Zach Castle)'s jobs as the neighbourhood pool cleaners are still in jeopardy. That's right, it's time for one last ride along with The Beech Boys, and with the FBI circling, it's about way more than just pool cleaning!


It would appear that when creators Matt Tory and J.J. Carroll got together to plan one last season of their riotous comedy series, they decided to take The Beech Boys out with a bang. Season 3 is bigger, longer and more adventurous than previous seasons. Taking the neighbourhood - and everyone in it - to places you'd never expect. It's more insane than a live action remake of Cars 2! Even Todd (Joshua James) is way more unhinged than normal - if that's possible. And who can blame him when there's a criminal conspiracy tearing its way through the heart of the community? I mean it must be bad if the FBI are willing to rely on Trey and Ethan for intel. But imagine how great the podcast will be!


Once again, Tory and Carroll dig into their love of popular culture to put a unique and crazy spin on every episode. Each one a hysterical parody. Nothing is safe from these two - including themselves, their friends and every medium of entertainment known to humankind. If you were horrified by 127 Hours, imagine what that would look like... poolside! How about a discussion on time travel more complicated than the one Tony Stark and his pals had in Avengers: Endgame... poolside? Of course, Home Improvement still isn't safe. For that matter, it probably never will be. But will Todd finally get the reboot he's been fighting for? Which just so happens to be one of many big questions tackled in this third and final season. Have you ever wondered what the world's wildest bachelor party would look like? Or how cute a moustachioed, stop-motion snowman with the voice a Morgan Freeman impersonator must be? And most important of all; will Trey actually learn something this season?


Even with all the farcical antics, musical numbers, and delightful stop-motion tales of obscure holidays, Tory and Carroll still find time for the odd emotional moment - more so than ever before - some of which are actually rather relatable. This brings a surprising amount of depth to our heroes and their quest. They are shown to be more than simply the egomaniacal arse, the tool, and their slightly unhinged, Tim Allen obsessed friend. Although, seriously. Should we be worried about the whole Tim Allen obsession? Either way, just when you think things are getting all too heavy and emotional, the show smacks you back into reality. By which I mean it hits you with yet more hysterical lunacy. And that's the beauty of this show; you never really know where it's going to go. Every episode is its own madcap adventure. Which makes it all the more amazing that Tory and Carroll are able to wrangle this madness they have created, and bring it to such a satisfying - and hilarious - conclusion. They really have brought The Beech Boys full circle, and in a way no one would have ever thought possible.


In their third and final season The Beech Boys go out with a bang. Creators Matt Tory and J.J. Carroll have taken the show on a rollercoaster ride of laughs and emotions in search of the perfect ending, and boy did they find it. More importantly, it serves as an important reminder to always treat your pool cleaners nicely... because you never know what they'll do if you don't!

9/10

The Suicide Squad | Average Guy Movie Review

A new batch of convicts - as well as a few originals - are under the thumb of Amanda Waller (Viola Davis), who's once again offering years off their prison sentences in return for completing a few jobs for Uncle Sam. This time she's sending them to the island nation of Corto Maltese. There they must infiltrate the capital and destroy a top secret research facility. Sounds easy enough. Task Force X is back, and with James Gunn at the helm things are madder than ever! The Guardians of the Galaxy  director has taken what David Ayer started and blown the roof off of it. But he has done so in a way that is respectful of what has gone before. Fans of the original (of which there are apparently few) will have no trouble going from  Suicide Squad  to The Suicide Squad . And yet, the new movie stands quite happily on it's own two feet. Rather than making them drastically different, the returning characters simply feel like they have grown a bit. Well, maybe not grown, but adapted, t

Operation Market Garden Anniversary 2016

The John Frost Bridge at Arnhem (from my visit in 2013) 72 years ago today, Allied troops set off on what could be one of the boldest missions of World War 2, Operation Market Garden. Developed by Field Marshall Montgomery, the plan was to advance into Nazi occupied Holland and develop a bridgehead over the River Rhine into Germany. There were two parts to the operation: Market (Airborne) Garden (Ground Forces) In what was the largest airborne operation of the war, paratroopers and glider troops had the job of securing bridges at Eindhoven (US 101st Airborne), Nijmegen (US 82nd Airborne) and Arnhem (British 1st Airborne). The ground forces, made up of the British XXX Corp had to advance up a single highway through Holland, linking up with the airborne forces as they went. In honour of the anniversary of Operation Market Garden we look back at some of the movies and TV Shows that tell the story of the Allies ill-fated attempt to end the war by Christmas 1944.

Moustache Lockdown Streaming Survival Guide Part 7 | Loudermilk

With the world still very much caught in the grasp of Covid-19, England is back in lockdown for at least four weeks. But it's not all doom and gloom, because with the return of lockdown comes something a little more fun... our Moustache Streaming Survival Guide is back, and this time we've got a hilarious comedy series for you. As always you can check out the other instalments in our survival guide by clicking here . Sam Loudermilk (Ron Livingston) is a recovering alcoholic living in Seattle. He may be sober, but he has a bad attitude and is generally pissed off at the entire world, something he seems to take out on almost anyone.  As a substance abuse counsellor he leads the local Alcoholics Anonymous group, and the quirky misfits who attend often bare the brunt of his negativity.  In fact the only person who he's nice to is his best friend and sponsor, Ben (Will Sasso), who has a few issues of his own to deal with. From Peter Farrelly and Bobby Mort comes a hysterical yet
