As far as I know it’s only legally available on Netflix so I don’t have a link, but if you have access to it I highly recommend it. I’m rewatching it right now because I’m on a break from job hunting and, though I try to get outside at least once a day, I frequently fail at that goal because there’s not a lot of extrinsic reason to go outside. It’s not the same as the pandemic but it definitely has parallels and a lot of “Inside” feels relevant right now.
He’s an engaging performer. Great writing and delivery, good physical comedy and performances, and I think he’s a really interesting visual designer. I love the lighting and editing of Inside as much as I like the writing and performance.
What do you think of Inside? of Bo? I know some of his earlier stuff is… rough. I think he had a bad case of “becoming famous as a child” but I think he matured gracefully as an artist.
Side casual conversation: is there an active comm for standup comedy / whatever kind of comedy Inside is? I guess it’s internet comedy but I don’t think that’s a standard genre.
I haven’t given it a full listen in a while but I absolutely loved it when it dropped. The jokes, music, direction were all a perfect encapsulation of the pandemic moment- being locked in the house and doing something entirely on your own.
It does feel like a time capsule. Even right when it came out I remember thinking, “…yep, that about sums up what it’s been like the past year-ish.”
