There is nothing like adult swimming, the chain with a channel generated from Cartoon Network which gives creatives a chance to really become weird, either in animation or live action. Many shows are fairly short, designed to adapt to blocks of 15 minutes or 30 minutes with advertisements, and they tend to have a comedy style that is very different from that on television. There are so many swimming shows for incredible adults that sometimes very good are a bit lost in the shuffle, and one of these shows featured “Barbie” and the director of “Lady Bird” Greta Gerwig, who is now ready to direct a “Narnia” adaptation for Netflix.
“China, he” was a strange little show created by Brad Neely on the “Worst Collège in America”, in the fictitious city of China, Illinois. The first season had 11 -minute episodes that were designed to be stories of oddity in the size of a bite in the Midwest, the subsequent seasons this time dubbing 22 minutes of episodes, although the tone and the format of the series remained the same despite a longer execution time. The show lasted 30 bizarre and hilarious episodes and Gerwig expressed his character, the teaching assistant in the history Pony Merks, in most of them.
Gerwig expressed Pony, a senior student and an occasional voice of reason
Pony is a complicated young woman, an elderly person from the University of China at Illinois who works as a teaching assistant, and she must endure many ridiculous nonsense of the teacher’s brothers, Steve and Frank Smith (both expressed by Neely) and the dean (Hulk Hogan), and the super chill character of Gerwig is a perfect antidote for the antidote crimes of Neely. In an interview ColliderGerwig explained that she had been approached by Neely to play Pony, although he told her not to adapt her performance in any way because he just loved the way she spoke. She also explained how fun it was to play Pony because of the wilderness of the series, saying:
“It’s so funny when we record because I will do episodes, and then they will need me to pick up and I will make vans for a bunch of episodes. I’m going to say something like:” Is it this with the time machine when they come back and kill Ronald Reagan? “It is total absurdity.
Adult swimming shows can really be unleashed, and “China, he” has definitely went to strange places. Gerwig is perhaps a serious competition as a writer and director these days, but in mid-2010, she was mainly known as an actor who worked several times with the director Noah Baumbach (who is now her husband). Heck, she even played a mermaid in an episode of “Portlandia”. Although it is a little bizarre that the very white Gerwig plays the Mexican pony, its performance is fun and “China, it” is quite underestimated. It is just wild to think that the director of “Barbie” formerly expressed a cartoon character who dated God. Thank you, Swim for adults.
