Tires is back with a new season, and fans of the show should definitely check out these comedies next. Shane Gillis and his collaborators created this small-scale and hilarious Netflix comedy that isn't shy about the kind of comedy it tackles. The Netflix show is now entering its third season, with many fans eager for more R-rated laughs.
While Tires is sometimes presented as one of the rare boundary-pushing comedies on television, there are other hilarious shows to check out as well. Filled with amoral characters and ridiculous antics, these comedies will bring the same laughs as Tires.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
When looking at modern comedy series with no fear, it is hard to ignore It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Like Tires' low-budget approach, It's Always Sunny started as a very small show, only to find a wider audience over the years, leading to its record-breaking upcoming 18th season.
Over these many years, It's Always Sunny has dealt with nearly every taboo comedy subject, always turning it around to comment on its own repugnant characters. The show challenged the idea that television characters need to be likable, instead making the gang at Paddy's Pub even more despicable as the show goes on.
Letterkenny
Starting as a YouTube comedy show, Letterkenny became a hit in Canada before making an unexpected impact in other countries. Set in a rural Ontario community, the show follows the various groups and personalities that interact in the town.
While Tires seems to be concerned only with delivering laughs, Letterkenny is capable of a surprising amount of heart. However, that should not distract from the hilarious, witty, and fast-paced laughs that it delivers. Surprisingly, the hockey-based spinoff series Shoresy is even funnier.
Trailer Park Boys
Trailer Park Boys is another Canadian gem perfect for the Tires crowd, with a similar low-budget approach and characters that are so messy you can't help but love them. Trailer Park Boys is set in a trailer park community in Nova Scotia and follows three friends, Ricky, Julian, and Bubbles, as they live as petty criminals.
Filmed in mockumentary style, Trailer Park Boys delights in its meager scale but still delivers huge laughs. It can be broad and outlandish as well as clever and subtle. With 12 seasons, various spinoffs, and movies, there is plenty of Trailer Park Boys to get caught up with.
Workaholics
Tires is a workplace comedy that deals with characters who couldn't care less about work. Workaholics has a similar vibe, as the series follows three best friends who work a dismal office job together while always looking for the next party.
The premise might sound juvenile, but that is exactly how the show treats its main characters. The trio of underachievers are never presented as cool, smooth, or popular as they like to think of themselves, which makes their shenanigans ever more entertaining.
Eastbound and Down
Shane Gillis has cemented his own brand of comedy as one of the most successful standup comedians working right now. However, it is not hard to see some similarities between his performance in Tires and Danny McBride's unapologetically awful character of Kenny Powers in Eastbound and Down.
Kenny is a former major league pitcher whose bad attitude, drug use, and destructive nature ended his career early. The series follows Kenny on his long road to redemption, in which he has no actual desire to change or better himself. Like Tires, it is a show that is uncompromising in its comedy and all the funnier for it.
