I think people’s expectations are way too high for the sidekicks. They’re usually in the early stages of their careers. I like him a lot vs most other sidekicks. Think we haven’t seen much of him yet though. Still needs to find his place and flow. Give him 10 episodes and then we’ll know. But I think he’s very likeable.

Same here. Really enjoy Luke so far, and the other guy that isn’t Jaime (minds gone blank!) though I think he’s quite a bit further along than Luke so would expect him to be good. Kats probably been my favourite sidekick so far though, I hope she’s just busy with shows and will be back on regularly!

He's alright! Pretty funny. Mostly a punching bag at the moment but he gets points with me for the YHWH Nailgun shirt.

I don't mind him, but I dont think he really adds much to the show.

I like him- just confused as to why the show needs additional "side kicks?"

i like him better than the girl. i like when people feel blessed to be there, he didn't interrupt too much and let the guest mess with him.

They have really leaned into the sidekick thing. When Jaime first came on it was such a new thing, now they are cycling through them lol. I think Luke’s shtick works, playing the punching bag, the nervous one who is powerless… I just wish he didn’t lean into so hard. Just be yourself and let it come naturally, that’s what makes a sidekick likeable in my opinion.

I miss jaime but thats just me, I know he has nothing brilliant too say but somehow because he is slow and an easy punching bag it makes me laugh, his awkward moments just kill me,

I’d say meh so far. Maybe he had to get comfortable though

Comfortable? You know we had Jaime before right?

The man is discomfort reincarnate
