Grandpa and Grandma are Young Again #01 — They Are Young Again

 

Yeah, I get it. I get the joke. The joke is understood. I hear what you’re saying.

Impressions:

This episode was weird, but not in a funny way, which is sad because it’s definitely trying to be a comedy. But that’s what happens when you have only one joke and keep trying to make it work long past the point of it being funny. It’s the title. The title is the joke. They are young. So the point at which it was funny did not ever exist. And then, out of nowhere, someone says that we need to compete in the sports tournament against a couple kids. Which is crazy because they’re old. But they’re not old. They are young. Bwaaaaagh. Or is that what retirement is like? Having the win tug of wars against the local children in impromptu sports tournaments to save the retirement home.

It’s hard to even say that it doesn’t do anything offensive, because one of the setups that it keeps coming back to is that their granddaughter/daughter (in law?) want to have sex with the dude. Because he is young. Which they explicitly yell out. You can’t hook up with your grandfather! That is too taboo even for porn! As is hooking up with your father! Lady, first of all, yelling an explanation of the creepiness doesn’t transform it into a joke, and second, you would not believe the porn that is out there. Lemme tell you a story about two girls and one cup.
