In the world of television, every so often, a show comes along that defies the usual tropes and offers something fresh. “Lazy Susan” is one such show, a hidden gem that deserves more attention than it has received. This article aims to shed light on what makes “Lazy Susan” stand out, from its unique premise to the exceptional talent behind it.<\/p>\n

The Premise<\/h2>\n

At its core, “Lazy Susan” is a sketch comedy show, but to leave it at that would do it a disservice. Unlike many of its contemporaries, which often rely on loud, in-your-face humor, “Lazy Susan” takes a different path. It’s a masterclass in the art of subtlety, finding humor in the mundane and elevating everyday scenarios into comedic gold.<\/p>\n

The show is the brainchild of Freya Parker and Celeste Dring, two comedians who bring their unique perspectives to the forefront. They play a variety of characters, each more relatable and hilariously flawed than the last. From awkward first dates to the absurdities of office life, “Lazy Susan” covers a wide range of experiences, all while maintaining a distinct voice.<\/p>\n

The Talent<\/h2>\n

Freya Parker and Celeste Dring<\/h3>\n

The real stars of “Lazy Susan” are, without a doubt, Freya Parker and Celeste Dring. Their chemistry is undeniable, a testament to their off-screen friendship and shared comedic vision. Parker and Dring are not just performers; they’re also the primary writers for the show, infusing each sketch with their unique brand of humor.<\/p>\n

Parker’s strength lies in her ability to convey a lot with a little. A subtle glance or a slight change in tone is all it takes for her to elicit laughs. Dring, on the other hand, excels in her physical comedy, using her expressions and body language to add an extra layer to the jokes.<\/p>\n

Together, they create a dynamic that is both endearing and hilarious, making “Lazy Susan” a joy to watch.<\/p>\n
