"We just got our asses handed to us by a 12-year old...She was like a feral mongoose." This show had me constantly belly laughing. The characters and plot are completely different. The show follows Barry, an ex-marine, and current assassin for hire, as he explores what makes him happy in life. This mostly consists of amateur acting and Sally Reed. Having been used by his handler for years, Barry begins to discover that he wants more for himself. The show goes on so many different twists and turns that it's hard to simply summarize the storyline. Lets just say the rotating cast and characters consist of the Chechnya mob (headlined by one of the funniest characters to ever grace a screen, NoHo Hank), a 12 year old jujitsu master, prison gangs, an acting class, and many many more.

While I think the show was really entertaining all the way through, Barry takes on a slightly different tone in season 3 and an entirely different tone in Season 4. Season 3 experiments with some more surreal and dream like concepts, while keeping the usual dramedy. I found it to be pretty interesting and thought it added a layer of depth to the show. The fourth and final season took on a very serious tone. There was still some comedy, but not nearly at the rate that the other seasons used. I would have liked to see a little more laughs in the fourth season.

The ending of the show gave a lot of characters their just desserts, which focused on their "true" natures. They acted with what was deep in their hearts and each got an ending surrounding that. I wouldn't say the ending is spectacular, but I found it enjoyable and pretty satisfying.

The show itself is definitely worth the watch. If you don't decide to watch this, "Well, you know what Sonny and Cher would say, that's on you babe." Thanks NoHo.
