      @Penguinz13989 2 года назад +11

      I agree. I’d like to see more of this. But they need to tweak the flow of the cuts and maybe slightly increase Amir’s excitement level. The « shut the fuck up » moment had the right spirit but it lacked the shocking effect of a low IQ narcissist lashing out. It’s still noticeably a step down from peak Jake and Amir, like during « homeland » as someone else mentioned. Make it faster pace, make the jokes simpler and cruder. Amir seems like he has dignity now. That’s not gonna fly. You can’t have two dignified characters in a comedy duo. Drop the dignity. Drop the self respect. Become that manic ADHD filterless abused only child again.

      Yeah, I think all stages and evolutions of the amir character have been incredibly hilarious (and obviously incredibly acted and delivered by amir) but perhaps the slightly more insecure, puppy dog/idiot era amir was/is one of the best (imo)!
      Maybe it was the relationship between jake and amir that was in a sweet spot at that point? Like how amir could be endearing, kind, and would obsessively cater to jake to try and win him over, but then would also be absolutely the worst ever in every naïve way at the same time (and then also just straight-up evil to everyone who was NOT jake, like Pat and etc.)
      Idk, just trying to dissect some of the reasons and ways that jake and amir was & IS so hilarious is really fun- don’t mind my ramblings ! Sorry!
