Some of them are one-note. Some of them are no notes. Some of them have flat lead characters; others have lead characters you’ll want to mount on a spit and roast over open coals before using the toxic carcass to poison your neighbor’s yappy little dog. None of them will tempt you to laugh, though you may feel a sharp desire to send death threats to their producers.
