Dec 1, 2022It's so bad it's good. Cheesy acting, campy everything, it's like if Macgruber took itself seriously. If there's nothing else on watch it for the sheer ridiculousness of the circus run amok feel.

Dec 3, 2022Kumail Nanjiani's acting is bad, he should stick to comedy. His bad performance hinders the series to become more of a mediocre shallow comedy
-
Running at eight episodes, Welcome to Chippendales is overlong, and too often the pace sags like a sweat-soaked loincloth. Still, it remains an interesting watch, with a sparky soundtrack (Donna Summer; Wire; the Sweet).
-
The sleaze, glamour and general air of excess that hung about the 80s is nicely captured, and all eight episodes can be easily binged. But you do long for some depth, some nuance, and perhaps an actor less fundamentally gentle than Kumail Nanjiani, who might have captured more convincingly the darkness lurking in Banerjee’s soul.

You have to keep watching simply to know where Banerjee ends up. Chippendales is a moreish junk-food binge and as enjoyable as it is at the time, it will leave you feeling a little bit grubby.
