I just found him too unbelievable, and the writing around him a bit sloppy.
Like, that’s the joke: He’s stupid? Not even in context to some baseline intelligence he might have (e.g. like Homer Simpson), just overall ongoing stupidity without any real consequences. Just a one liner and then the scene moves on
Which I also thought was a needless dunk on Florida. To paint an entire state, or at least Jacksonville as a place full of similar idiots is just a bit regressive.
It would be like having an Irish character on TV and all he does is drink and blow things up.
I watched this show last summer. He was so brilliantly stupid. He lost five IQ points every episode. They must have had a blast writing him.
I do not doubt it. Every episode of that show is so fucking good. Perfection.
What show is it?
The Good Place

I think the joke he was substance and florida-induced stupid.

Ill never be conviced otherwise that he was written to be so dumb so that one scene would feel so much funnier
