Even for a show that has been unflinching in its depiction of marriage and family life, the fourth and final season of “Catastrophe,” which premiered Friday on Amazon, goes to some uniquely dark places. From MeredithBlake :
Jay Roach’s film about Roger Ailes and Fox News. He’s also become politically outspoken, using his Twitter account to advocate for Medicare for All and Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential candidacy.
Delaney — tall and burly and currently sporting a bushy mustache that underscores his cartoonish handsomeness — likens his and Horgan’s real-life relationship to that of fraternal twins. “I think, maybe if they did one of those family genealogy things, they'd find out that, in fact, Sharon and I are not-terribly-distantly related.”
Released on Amazon two years ago, Season 3 of “Catastrophe” followed Rob as he fell off the wagon, secretly drinking during the day and disguising the smell of booze by strategically gobbling bags of cheese and onion chips, a ruse that’s effective until he gets in a drunken car wreck. “We really worked to make sure that it was a real quotidian, garden-variety alcoholism with a side of lies, so that it really hurt,” says Delaney.
Delaney said that he and Horgan were “reaching around a bit more for a story that was authentic. It would just feel horrible for the show to manufacture storylines that didn't feel like they came out of a place that was real. That was something we gave a [expletive] about.”
