Set in a suburban house, Beef House is an absurd comedy series that follows the lives of five dysfunctional roommates. The show revolves around the absurd and often dangerous endeavors of the Beef family, which includes Tim (played by Tim Heidecker), his girlfriend Eric (played by Eric Wareheim), and their three unforgettable children - Amadeus, Baby Joey, and Megan.

The show starts with a seemingly normal family dinner, but things quickly escalate as Tim announces that he's going to start a band. The family gathers around their rickety kitchen table, as Tim sings a horrifically cringey song, and Eric plays the bongos. Amadeus, Baby Joey, and Megan join in, adding their own peculiar styles to the musical number.

From there, things only get weirder. The Beef family finds themselves embroiled in a variety of absurd situations and adventures. From taking on a haunted shed to exploring a local sex cult, there is never a dull moment in the Beef household.

The show is filled with witty humor that often pushes the boundaries of good taste. The characters are constantly making strange, off-color jokes and engaging in unpredictable behavior. However, the humor is never nasty or mean-spirited, and instead emphasizes the ridiculousness of everyday life.

While the show is driven by its quirky sense of humor, it is also notable for its impressive performances. Jamie-Lynn Sigler stands out as Nancy, the family's next-door neighbor, who is constantly involved in their antics. She brings a grounded authenticity to the show, which helps balance out the more absurd elements.

Another standout performance comes from Heidecker, who infuses his character Tim with a lovable cluelessness. Tim is often the least intelligent person in the room, yet he operates with the utmost confidence. Heidecker's portrayal is pitch-perfect, and he imbues the character with a sense of genuine sincerity that is hard not to love.

The show's visuals are also noteworthy. The set design of the Beef house is intentionally ramshackle, with fake walls and cheap-looking props that add to the show's sense of absurdity. The camera work is similarly low-fi, with lots of handheld shots and imposed imperfections. Combined, these elements give the show a distinct, DIY feel that matches its reactionary style.

In terms of content, the show is not for everyone. Its offbeat sense of humor and bizarre scenarios will certainly not appeal to everyone. However, for those who enjoy irreverent comedy that pokes fun at convention, Beef House is a delightful treat.

Overall, Beef House is a thoughtful and entertaining new addition to Adult Swim's programming lineup. Its unique blend of surrealism and satire creates a bizarre world that is never dull, and its clever writing and performances work together to create a thoroughly engrossing viewing experience. If you're a fan of Heidecker and Wareheim's work or enjoy edgy, off-the-wall humor, then Beef House is definitely worth checking out.

Beef House is a series that ran for 1 seasons (6 episodes) between March 10, 2020 and on Adult Swim
