Anticipation: Kevin Can't F***ing Wait

[Meredith Quill]

Anticipate Here!

Is this a real show?

This show sounds amazing but I haven’t heard anything about it since Annie Murphy was cast as the lead almost a year ago. I hope it hasn’t been shelved due to the pandemic—or whatever reason.

I live just south of Boston and was born in Worcester, so we've kept getting pics from shooting around town that stoked my anticipation. Glad I could finally schedule it to record.

Kevin Can F**k Himself premieres this Sunday, 6/13.  I am all in for Annie Murphy.

Does anyone know if AMC is going to make the episodes available online/on their app once they've aired?  I can log in to AMC with my cable credentials, but it tells me I need to upgrade to watch the two that are currently out there (not yet aired).  I know I've watched things like Better Call Saul and Lodge 49 (those were AMC, right?) without the premium subscription.  Hope this will be the same.

 

Editing to add, in case anyone else is wondering... apparently the AMC app on the Fire Stick doesn't tell you when something needs "premium" access.  It lets you select it but just keeps "loading" until you give up and back out.  I think on their website it's more clear about what's available without premium access.  So to answer my original question, yes, the episodes seem to be available to stream after they've aired.

Did you watch? What did you think of Annie Murphy's (and the rest of the cast, but mainly her) accent? I thought it was good, but I'm from Maryland and have no idea whether its legitimate to the area -- curious what a true Worcester area person thinks!

Ha! I was in the middle of typing a response in the episode thread that addresses the accents when the notification popped up. I lived in Worcester only until I was 3, then we moved to just outside Boston. Then I spent too many years in Florida, and twenty years ago moved back to the South Shore (south of Boston; they apparently filmed some in the next city over). I thought they all did well, but I know some disagree. But I always seem to think that when there's anything with Massachusetts accents because everyone I know with the strong Boston accent speaks just differently enough that they always sound fine to me.

I'll admit to waiting eagerly for the first mention of Worcester because we said it "WIS-tuh," but that wouldn't have worked, so I liked that they went about two-thirds of the way there (there's a city called Medford here, and a lot people pronounce it "Meffa." It was really fun moving here with my native Floridian husband, while waiting to see if my accent came back (I didn't try to lose it but I was young enough when we moved to Florida that I lost it without wanting to. Still mostly have my "r's" but quickly lost my middle t's, so I say "curtain" "cur-hin." Or something) and hearing him pronounce a word he'd only heard and never seen written like a Boston native.

I'm not opposed to the idea of this show.  I'm simply opposed to it botching things by going too long. 

Rarely have I seen an idea so tailored to one season and done. Or if there's a second season, intentionally overturning the whole premise (and/or cast) and hoping the audience will follow.

Thank you, this happened to me today. Got so frustrated with the spinning loading wheel I “backed out” as you said above and tried again. Milking us for subscriptions!

Apparently Firestick has some issues with certain apps.  I struggled trying to watch CBS live on Firestick. (I log in with my cable access code). I googled and found others also had this problem.  I then tried it on Roku and problem solved.  I have Roku tv, but also Firestick.
