Baby Billy has returned!
is a raucous satire of the unholy union of capitalism and religion, as well as all-American greed, hypocrisy, vulgarity, stupidity, violence, and alpha-male braggadocio. Yet it is also, at times, a disarmingly sincere show about family values. Those values may be obscene and debased much of the time and the family wildly dysfunctional, but among the Gemstones, there are no sins that cannot be forgiven.
“Everybody that’s famous knows that true famous people go through different phases on the being-famous train,” Billy tells Tiffany when he gets back to the penthouse. He’s mostly right, though true famous people probably also know that career trajectories tend to dip after a few decades, not rise and fall, and he hasn’t been a star for a very long time.
• Other than his return to fame, “standing in air-conditioning all day” seems like a primary motivator for Baby Billy to be “back on the motherfucking TV.”• The sexual charge to Keefe talking to Kelvin about his sausage dip is palpable and truly unsettling. And it continues with Keefe’s astonishing fire routine, which sends Kelvin to ecstatic heights while weirding out just about everyone else.
