I understand the negativity surrounding Flaked, but the vast majority of these criticisms are entirely misplaced.

Many take issue with the fact that not a whole lot actually happens, which is a fair point, but the show isn't meant to be an exciting adventure, or even a day trip to the beach. It is a character study of a man who purposefully traps himself in a web of lies that service him in the moment, but come to entangle him in the future. It can be irritatingly slow at times, but that feeling of monotonous anxiety is exactly what the writers intended to create as it's a reflection of Chip(Arnett) and the overarching theme of momentary pleasures, mistaken for happiness, being enveloped by a sea of nothing. Flaked near flawlessly accomplishes was meant to.

As far as complaints about acting, Arnett is always fantastic in manipulative and selfish roles, Kearney's performance is melodramatic and seems false because her character is phony and melodramatic, and Sullivan and Basil portray helpless followers adeptly.

Flaked's writers make very good use of indirect characterization. On the surface many of the supporting characters seem to lack dimension, but if you look at how they conduct themselves and the minute expressions and mannerisms of the characters, they become much more interesting. This is true of the entire production.

While at first glance it may seem shallow and bland, the subtle developments and humor make Flaked a TV show that stands out. If you read between the lines, you'll see it for what it is, a 9 out of 10.… Expand

Flake's second season builds on the loose structure of the first, meandering its way back through Venice Beach and the unfolding drama and deceptions (often self-delusions). The slower pace remains the same, and the season is short, sweet, and as aimless as the first.

I can see why the meandering plot and the overall slacker tone would annoy a lot of people. There's nothing much going on in season 2 of Flaked, much as in season 1.

But this show is all about the mood. You have to let yourself fall into the vibe of an LA beach bum and the mellowness and melancholia of the thing will make sense to you.

Will Arnett is at his best playing loud, brash **** so here, playing a subdued, low-key **** he is kind of wasted. But hey.

Not to everyone's taste, but a cleverer show than it might seem.… Expand

This show badly needs to be canceled. Terrible acting and writing. Finding out that Will Arnett relapsed because of this s--t makes it even worse. Its bad enough when acting takes actors to dark places, but when it's the price being paid for something that isn't even good...... Sigh. IThis show badly needs to be canceled.

I am disgusted by the fact that actual shows with a potential got canceled because they were "too succesful" as the Netflix CEO himself said in a recent interview, and then this **** things gets a second season just because Will Arnett bought viewers. Truly disgusting!

Awful, pointless like the first season. I wanted to give it an another chance, but Will disappointed me again. Why they have renewed this show for a second season if nobody asked for it?

As I expected, the second season sucks as the first one, if it's not even worse. The characters are static, and the story itself is dead. The acting is even worse than it was in the first season, and the lack of female characters (with even just an ounce of psychological thickness), isAs I expected, the second season sucks as the first one, if it's not even worse. The characters are static, and the story itself is dead. The acting is even worse than it was in the first season, and the lack of female characters (with even just an ounce of psychological thickness), is nauseating. Of course, Ruth Kearney acts horribly, I don't know how she got casted in the first place. I don't even know how this show got renewed, and why I decided to give it a second chance!
So sad that shows like this get renewed and then, actually good shows like The Get Down and Sense8 get canceled.
@ netflix, you just lost a customer ;)… Expand
