I’m surprised I don’t see a topic on this show when searching.

Mike Myers is back! Watched first 3 episodes and it’s Mike Myers is exploring secret societies.

He made fun of Alex Jones and it was spot on. A lot of other comedians appear as well.

Only 6 eps 30 min each, maybe it should have been a movie or originally planned that way?

People fans of Myers will find this amusing. Almost like it’s a Austin Powers level comedy, instead of secret agent it’s secret societies lol

 

[jufonuk]

I will watch this.

Yeah baby schwing

 

[IDKFA]

I'll be totally honest. That trailer did absolutely nothing for me. Write up in the OP didn't sell it to me either and the reviews seem to be very average.

Sorry. Going to give this one a miss.

Sorry >.<

I’m not a reviewer or an employee of Netflix.

I liked Ken jeong until I saw him in murderville. Might give the first episode a try anyway.

I feel like Mike Myers sold his soul to the devil to be really funny, and then raped a baby sometime around Austin Powers 3 and the Devil was like..fuck this I already got you.... gimme that funny back..
he has been cringe ever since and I'm putting money in this being extra cringe.

 

[R6Rider]

I've watched the first episode and so far it's just dumb enough for me to enjoy.

I can see a lot of people not liking it though.

 

[ParaSeoul]

i get mike myers confused with michael myers

The key and pill skit I thought was pretty clever.

Yeah, that bit was good.

 

[Kev Kev]

i gotta check it out. the austin powers movies were so fuckin funny back in the day.

 

[IntentionalPun]

Probably the most embarrassing stretch (for American moviegoers taste) of a comedian becoming the "it person" in Hollywood was for Myers lol

The last good role he had was Studio 54.

 

[jufonuk]

It’s not too bad so far. Got a Garth Merenghi vibe to it minus Matt Berry. Also I think the hallway from the pilot is the one used in Austin powers.

It’s an ok show. I don’t see it becoming a massive hit more a cult thing.

 

[MMaRsu]

I really enjoyed it

 

[mitch1971]

I'd rather watch a Guru 2.

I wouldn't watch that either.

 

[jufonuk]

Oh Mike Myers has heard of the word Taint and is over using it so far. I can imagine him going oh that's what the younger generation use, I too am hip.

 

[Vestal]

The Netflix joke in episode 2 had me legit crying. Lots of funny moments through out. The acting is rough in a few areas, but who cares lol. Jeremy Irons intros were amazing lol.

Came in expecting a Mike Meyers comedy and was not disappointed.

 

[FunkMiller]

Michael Myers is slightly funnier.

 

[Rockondevil]

Don't even need to watch the trailer. Always liked Mike Myers so I'll definitely put this on the watch list.

I'd give that title to Dane Cook myself. They really pushed him hard and got absolutely nothing good from it. At least Myers gave us some good laughs with Austin Powers.

At Cornell University they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the tunneling electron microscope. This microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom, the infinitesimally minute building blocks of our universe. IDKFA, if I were using that microscope right now... I still wouldn't be able to locate my interest in your comment.

 

[BadBurger]

It's crazy how that Love Guru movie was so bad it literally killed his then shining career for over a decade.

I don't feel like resubbing to Netflix, but if I find a way to watch this I'll give it a shot.

Yet, you were interested enough to reply

 

[kraspkibble]

i cant stand mike myers. his best work was Shrek.

[Bitmap Frogs]

Watched it.

It’s just the typical gag assault that myers has always done.

Is it Austin Powers good? Hell no. But I had enough laughs along the way to make it worth.

 

[fran.fernandez]

Watched 10 minutes and that was my limit

 

[jufonuk]

Is this a limited series. If so yeah it wasn’t too bad. Not the best but. It bad. Had a few laughs here and there.

Worth watching if only to pass the time. Lol.
Jeremy Irons killed it.

 

[Revolutionary]

Watched the first episode. I think I'm just surprised that this exists as a new show in 2022, because it feels like something Mike Myers might have made 15 years ago.

 

[Hari Seldon]

I liked it. The premise is insane and there are a lot of really done gags.

 

[Batiman]

Bring back powers!

 

[Rran]

Groovy baby yeah

Classic Frasier! I've considered using this quote conversationally but I'm concerned I'll mangle it somewhere along the way.

 

[ItsGreat]

Some cracking gags in this show. The second episode is better than the first.
