the dystopia is here, part 2
Entitled well-paid celeb teenager to prank desperate job-seekers for your entertainment. We. Are. So. Fucked. From Deadline:
Each episode of this terrifying and hilarious prank show takes two complete strangers who each think they’re starting their first day at a new job. It’s business as usual until their paths collide and these part-time jobs turn into full-time nightmares.
Jesus wept, no. “[T]errifying and hilarious”? Pop culture has gone full-blown sociopathic.
As AV Club puts it: “Gaten Matarazzo’s cool new Netflix prank show is all about screwing with people trying to find work” (I hope AV Club is using cool ironically.)
What the fuck. Maybe 16-year-olds shouldn’t be executive-producing anything.
