BOBCAT GOLDTHWAIT'S MISFITS & MONSTERS
July 18, 2018  | By David Bianculli

TruTV, 10:00 p.m. ET

 

I was surprised by how dark the comedy in Bobcat Goldthwait’s comedy genre anthology series turned in its premiere episode last week – but only until I remembered it was Bobcat Goldthwait calling the shots. Then it was easy to accept, and appreciate, that what he’s doing here with Misfits & Monsters is, essentially, a new live-action approximation of Tales from the Crypt, over-the-top gory moments and all. And tonight, the plot revolves around a werewolf who runs for high office, embracing rather than concealing his inner monster. The episode is titled “President-Elect by Day, Werewolf by Night.” David Koechner plays the Werewolf-in-Chief, and Dave Foley plays his political strategist.
