The Righteous Gemstones
You could make a case for all three of Danny McBride’s HBO shows — the others are Eastbound and Down and Vice Principals — to be on this list of funniest TV shows.
But we’re going with The Righteous Gemstones, about a family mega-ministry that combines comedy and drama — as well as shocking violence — better than any show we’ve ever seen. The core cast is outstanding, but everyone shines. Benjamin Jason Barnes (Tim Baltz) made us laugh harder than anyone else on the show with his reaction to Baby Billy (Walton Goggins) overturning a trailer full of remedies for “covids” and other ailments.
Favorite line: “The elixirs…”
