Impastor

Beware - series ends on a cliff hanger; there is no conclusion.

And now I have to add words because my review is too short.

Still too short.

Wow, what is wrong with a short review?

I saw this on PRIME and thought it was new....sadly it is not and it ends with a total cliffhanger and no season 3. I liked it. Is it genius TV? No, but it is easy to watch and had some good laughs.

So, TV Land? Michael Rosenbaum? Lutheran pastor? Meh. I don't think so. Or do I... So I was just browsing the IMDb the other day looking for some new comedy and I stumbled upon Impastor. The premise sounded OK but the rest I wasn't so sure about. Being from the generation for which Smallville was defining TV show (not me personally though) I was quite familiar with Rosenbaum and I have to say I didn't like the guy. Watching the trailer left me hesitant but having nothing else to watch I tried it. And loved it! Rosenbaum is cool and funny but ultimately a bit dumb and simple (which is a good thing), David Rasche is charming, the rest is fine as well (loved the two cops). The writing quality is steady and the story is well paced. Please renew!

I have to admit I was a bit skeptical when I saw it was on TV-Land. Even the good ratings on IMDb don't mean much to me because there are plenty of examples where I totally disagree with the ratings. But that's fine because everybody is entitled to his own opinion. Nevertheless I was surprised by Impastor, and even pleasantly surprised. Impastor is a series that will make you laugh unless you have no sense of humor at all. As an atheist I even enjoyed it more because I know there will be some tight-up religious people that will get offended by this mild humor. Michael Rosenbaum is funny to watch. His character as the fake gay pastor has enough potential to keep this show going for several seasons. Hopefully they do because we all need a bit of laughter every now and then.

this show has extremely funny and crazy plot. the acting is superb, especially Michael rosenbaum (lex Luther of "smallvile") that show us a great comic ability.

the craziness of impastor reminds me the show "my name is earl", (althought it's way better).

many high-concept-sitcoms started this year. comedies with ongoing plot, like the last man on earth, unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, galavant, etc. i believe that impastor is now the best show of this sub-genre.

in age when every half-hour dramas with one silly joke per episode pretend to be "comedy", it's refreshing to see show that have many laughs.

i found this show last week, tried the first episode, and just found myself binging the first 6 episodes. too bad it's on TV-land, so most people never heard of, or under impression that this show is like TV land's other crap. also, it's ashame that TV land didn't promoted this great show as it should be.

in conclusion: do yourself a favor and try to watch the best current comedy show.
