Vince Staples' new show on Netflix, "The Vince Staples Show," is a postmodern black comedy that showcases the insanity of life and Vince's life as a rapper. While it has its funny and Lynchian moments, the show's format underplays Vince's comedic talent and energy, leaving much to be desired. Despite some standout episodes and a strong supporting cast, the series feels like a run-through and falls short of fully capturing Vince Staples' potential as a leading figure in a post-Atlanta era of television.

The series culminates in a standout episode that brings the themes of Staples' music to the forefront, delivering a thought-provoking and humorous ending.
