I personally was able to review episode 3. I do plan on going back to watch the first 2 episodes, but I can tell just for episode 3 I'm going to love it. The show is a bit slower paced which is perfect for me. I love the clean humor and the chemistry between the cast members.
What to expect from episode 3:
New slogan and image for KHUGG – “Totally Inoffensive,” “Uplifting Positivity.”
Ratings are down which means a decline in advertisers.
New sponsors with competing interests - two feuding brothers who own different car dealerships pit Tommy and Tina against each other because of sponsorships.
More commercials and less talk time.
Tommy is resistant to social media.
Jerry works to create a divide between Tommy and Tina.
Special Guest Christian singer Colton Dixon: https://www.coltondixon.com/
There are so very thought prompting themes in this episode:
Tithing
Competition between friends and family
Miraculous prayer
Division by outside forces
Dealing with conflict
Episode Bible Verses
Psalm 91 (NIV)
“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.” - Matthew 6:2-3 (NIV)
“A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” - Proverb 15:1 (NIV)
