Joe Pera Talks With You was an underappreciated treasure that I think deserves way more viewers. Here's one of my favorite scenes. (www.youtube.com)

I would describe it as Napoleon Dynamite meets Mister Rogers directed by Wes Anderson.

It's a lovely show that got cancelled after 3 seasons, but the seasons they got were really special and worth watching. There's a very subtle, sweet storyline throughout the story that isn't immediately obvious if you just jump around via clips.

I think he's similar to his character, but he definitely leans into the schtick a bit. I love that the stakes are so low in the show, until they're suddenly not (or seemingly not). He's definitely a master of pacing. I've watched the whole series multiple times, by now. The little love story is also just lovely. I think one of the most-powerful moments was when Sarah briefly takes over talking to the camera later in the show.
