What The Tires Season 2 Trailer Means For The Show
It’s Main Comedic Dynamic Returns
TheTiresseason 2 trailerteases the return of the show’s main comedic dynamicbetween the nervous and unqualified Will, who attempts to revitalize his family’s struggling auto-repair business, but faces constant harassment from his obnoxious cousin and employee, Shane, who attempts to undermine him at every turn. According to its synopsis,Tiresseason 2 picks up “after the unexpected success of their big marketing idea” as “Will and Shane rush to grow personally and professionally without fully realizing the cost of doing business.”
Tires Season 1 Ending Explained
The ending of Netflix’s Tires reveals Will’s relationship with his boss and father, whose approval he constantly seeks throughout the show.
Though not shown in the teaser trailer,Tiresseason 2 has received an injection of star powerwith the addition of Thomas Haden Church. Though best known as Sandman fromSpider-Man 3and for his Oscar-nominated performance inSideways, Church also starred in the 1990s sitcomsWingsandNed & Stacey. Church has proven his comedic chops over the years, so he should fit right in with the cast ofTires. Church is playing Shane’s “immature” father, who is described as “a grown-up version” of him, which should introduce a new, but familiar comedic dynamic.
Our Take On The Tires Season 2 Trailer
It’s More Of The Same From Shane Gillis
By bringing back the same comedic dynamics,Tiresseason 2 should maintain its audience on Netflix, but also continue receiving mixed reviews from critics for its occasionally offensive jokes, indicated by its 40% and 87% scores on Rotten Tomatoes. In theTiresseason 2 trailer, Shane makes a joke about his sunglasses making him “look like a Dominican outfielder,” which is somewhat similar to the type of racially motivated humor that got him fired fromSaturday Night Live, but was still invited back twice to host.
