Russell’s birthday party produces fireworks on an explosive Vice Principals.
ThisVice Principalsreview contains spoilers.
Another solid installment,Vice Principalskeeps finding interesting things to do while largely ignoring the Who Shot Gamby?
thread that threatened to control the course of the season.
When Christine explodes later in the episode, I found myself pumping my fist.
Gamby tries to reconnect with Snodgrass, only to find her content in her new relationship with Brian.
Its incredibly dark stuff but it somehow still elicits laughter, which is essentiallyVice Principals mission statement.
It will be interesting to see what the fallout of the party brings.
Russell was aggressively embarrassed in front of not only his co-workers, but his boss as well.
The superintendent already doesnt love Russell, Im sure Christines outburst didnt do much to help the situation.
Also, what will happen if Brain discovers that he was drugged?
Gamby would clearly be the main suspect and it would certainly dash his chances at rekindling things with Snodgrass.
Vice Principalshas been consistently upping its quality week after week by going down darker paths.
The first season followed a similar trajectory, but for whatever reason, this year seems far more engaging.
Perhaps it has something to do with getting used to the overall mean-spirited mood of the show.
Or maybe Ive sadly come to empathize with the monsters at the heart of this series.
