WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Dave (Dave Burd, AKA rapper Lil Dicky) is convinced he will become the world's greatest rapper but must first overcome his neuroses, which are of the male variety. Meanwhile, his girlfriend Ally (Taylor Misiak) has to cope with his new rap persona.
MY SAY: Who's Lil Dicky? If ya gotta ask, then we've got a problem here already. But if you must know, then ask your son (who is ideally between the ages of 15 and 22). He'll know. Also tell him YG has a prominent cameo in the pilot. Suddenly, as if by magic, you will have his undivided attention.
"Dave" is not for everyone but there absolutely is a crowd for this shrewd, often funny, and scorchingly vulgar new comedy. "Dave" explores the most important social, or at least musical, development since the death of rock 'n roll, from the perspective of a white, Jewish kid from Philly who blows his bar mitzvah savings in order to get one brief and precious "sample."
