Bless This Mess is an American comedy series that aired on ABC from 2019 to 2020. The show has been created by Lake Bell and Elizabeth Meriwether, who are also the executive producers of the show. The show is set in rural Nebraska, and it follows the journey of a newlywed couple that decides to move from New York City to Nebraska to start a new life. The show is a fish-out-of-water story that explores the difficulties of adapting to a new way of life in a small town. The couple, Rio and Mike, played by Lake Bell and Dax Shepard respectively, initially plan on living in a cabin that they inherited from Mike's great-aunt. However, they soon realize that the cabin is not as idyllic as it looks in pictures, and they have to put in a lot of work to make it livable. This is also the first of many challenges that they face while settling into their new life. Their next challenge is to make a living in a town where job opportunities are far and few between. Rio and Mike are both unemployed when they arrive in Nebraska, and they struggle to find jobs that suit their skills. This leads to some hilarious situations as they try their hand at various odd jobs, including farm work, selling artisanal toilet paper, and starting a tomato farm. The show also features a host of colorful characters, including the local mayor, Rudy (Ed Begley Jr.), who is convinced he can turn the town into a tourist destination with his grandiose ideas, and Constance (Pam Grier), the town's wise and no-nonsense bartender. We also meet Jacob (JT Neal), the teenage neighbor who becomes a vital part of Rio and Mike's lives, and his father Beau (David Koechner), who is struggling to run his farm after his wife's passing. The show is a hilarious take on rural life that steers away from the usual stereotypes that we see in television shows. Bless This Mess is a show that is full of heart, and it focuses on the challenges that Rio and Mike face in their personal lives and their relationship. The show features a lot of physical comedy, which is executed flawlessly by Lake Bell and Dax Shepard, who have fantastic chemistry on screen. Bless This Mess is a show that captures the essence of small-town life, and it does so in a way that is both authentic and amusing. The show cleverly balances humor and heart, and it is a show that will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. The characters are well-developed, and you soon get invested in their individual journeys as well as their relationships with each other. Overall, Bless This Mess is a fantastic show that is perfect for those who enjoy comedies that are heartwarming and relatable. The series has a fresh and unique concept, and it is executed exceptionally well. The show features a talented cast, witty writing, and impeccable comedic timing. It's a shame that the show was canceled after only two seasons, as it deserved much more recognition and praise than it received. Nevertheless, Bless This Mess is a show that is definitely worth watching, and it will surely leave you with a smile on your face.
