Season Three is upon us, CineDump, and with it comes more of the uncannily uncouth, the vitriolically violent, and the disturbingly dreamlike. Awesome Show continues its satirical takedown of capitalism, using Season Three, Episode One “Resurrection,” to exuberantly mock commercials and infomercials. The main saga of Tim’s return from death is devoid of all mystery or spiritual significance--instead, it is reduced to the amount of “hundos” Tim and Eric can earn through their production of Tiny Tigers.

We’ve reached the end of Season Two, and like the end of Season One, there will be laughter and a whole lot of tears. In Season Two, Episode Ten, “Embarrassed,” Awesome Show reaches the apotheosis of its themes of competition and wicked fathers. From the nonsensical, joyous “Tumblers Better than Pumpers” song, to the rivalry that forms this episode’s main saga, competition forms the narrative core of this episode

Awesome Show continues its exploration of family with Season Two, Episode Nine, “Pepperoni.” Throughout seasons one and two, Awesome Show returns again and again to the idea of family. While dads and dad-adjacent imagery have been fully explored, Season Two focuses more closely on motherhood.

Season Two, Episode Eight is a loving tribute to all of Cinco’s tacky glory. A companion piece to the much darker Season Cinco episode “Greene Machine,” “Innernette” combines everything we love about the Cinco Corporation: pointlessness, inelegance, and greed. Capitalism, like Fatherhood, has long been a staple of Awesome Show’s irreverent humor.

With Season Two, Episode Seven, “Robin,” Tim and Eric lovingly lampoon Robin Williams years before his tragic death. Along with a truly silly Cinco product and Richard Dunn in his strangest role yet, “Robin” is one of Awesome Show’s sweeter entries. Season Two is full of break-neck emotional turns: compassionate to creepy, nihilistic to sentimental, often within the same sketch.
