Misleading premise or no, Sexy Beasts isn’t without its pleasures. One is the awkward near-slapstick of watching a woman with a dolphin head try to nurse a beer, or a man with a beaver head try to kiss through enormous rubber teeth. Another: Rob Delaney’s good-natured but snarky narration. Watching contestants struggle to cough up innuendo or a personality, occasionally for what seems like for the first time, is a treasure.

The brief episodes are so relentless in terms of establishing the situation, explaining the format, setting up a panoply of individual dates, and providing endless and witless editorial comment, that little sparkles through the spackle. And the makeup applied to the competitors lacks the verve and oddity of the costuming on “The Masked Singer.” It’s all technically perfect — transforming young and eligible people into zombies, trolls, beavers, and dolphins. But this seamlessness leaves little room for personality.

All of this is executed with the least possible effort or ingenuity, from the generic bar where the first dates take place to the casting, which must’ve prioritized cockiness over all other traits. ... Episodes that top out at 25 minutes feel twice as long and culminate in no great desire to hit the “next episode” button.
