Here’s the First Look of the Second/Final Season of Kevin Can F**K Himself

July 18, 2022

Perhaps one of the darkest takes on the largely patriarchal universe that multi-cam sitcoms live in, Kevin Can F**K Himself is one of the most audacious, genre bending shows that we’ve seen in some time. That’s probably for the best that they don’t have to figure a season/series are beyond this upcoming second season. The switching gears between two genres/universes/tones is something to marvel unto itself and simply calling Kevin Can F**K Himself a dark comedy doesn’t really do it justice (especially since it feels like a sort of shot across the bow for Kevin Can Wait and anything like it).

You can see where this upcoming second and final season of Kevin Can F**K Himself is going here (though there’s a big spoiler for season 1 in this trailer). Then, look for it to premiere on AMC on Aug. 22nd (you can stream the first two eps. on AMC+)

Ever since we heard about the initial development of Kevin Can F**k Himself from Valerie Armstrong, Rashida Jones, and Will McCormack, which seems like decades ago at this point, we were so enthusiastically and completely on board. A satirical meta series about the stock multi-cam sitcom wife gaining her own agency and doing something about the hellish nightmare she has been stuck in with a slacker, overweight, dismissive, yet “lovable” husband? It’s like our subconscious, and, very likely, the subconscious of many who are sick of schlocky formulaic family sitcoms are finally getting realized.

As far as we can see, this is a much needed response to the plethora of outdated multi-cams where wives were one-dimensional and always way out of the league of their husbands (just check out most Kevin James led sitcoms).

Having Schitt’s Creek’s Annie Murphy take on the lead role had us even more excited for what was to come for the show destined for AMC. Now, we all finally get a first look at what’s in store for us all with the first official trailer for KEVIN CAN F**K HIMSELF that just dropped today.

Getting tinges of Promising Young Woman and Groundhog Day and we’re still very much all in for it. Look for KEVIN CAN F**K HIMSELF this Summer on AMC.

Annie Murphy from Schitt’s Creek To Star in Meta AMC Comedy Series ‘Kevin Can F*** Himself’

For a show that follows the multi-layered life of a sitcom wife from a poorly wrought and executed multi cam sitcom, series creator Valerie Armstrong and EPs Rashida Jones and Will McCormack might have just perfectly cast their star for Kevin Can F*** Himself.

We were already excited for an AMC series to satirically examine the three-dimensional life of what has historically been an unrealistic one-dimensional character archetype, the sitcom wife. Annie Murphy already stole hearts with Alexis Rose on Schitt’s Creek and, we think, she might have another landmark role here.
