Despite starring comedy powerhouse mrbobodenkirk, LuckyHank adeptly deals with some pretty hefty themes.
Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for Lucky Hank, Season 1, Episode 5.Thanks to a smart blend of sharp, biting commentary and sarcasm that engages audiences, Lucky Hank has quickly become one of this season’s best new series, and for good reason.
While the previous episode, “The Goose Boxer,” found Hank’s wife Lily heading to New York for an interview at the Arlyle School and in the way of a kiss from ex-boyfriend Tom , issues are officially abound. Fast-forward to “The Clock” and Hank is now fighting his long-stemming abandonment issues from a fractured relationship with his father during a department staff dinner at his house after Lily tries to make a decision about the job offer.
Suddenly spiraling and becoming a visual product of his own anxiety, Hank tells Julie that her mom is leaving them, mixing up details until their daughter decides to pull Lily aside. While Hank cannot hear, he knows he’s jumped to conclusions.
Bob Odenkirk’s Performance of the Year Of course, we know Bob Odenkirk is one of the best actors of our generation, but it was this episode that gave us the beloved star’s most tender, heartfelt, and poignant performance to date. As we learn the trauma young Hank went through, Odenkirk’s embodiment of that pain is one you cannot help but sympathize with.
