It’s a very good representation of the constant tightrope that Dave is walking between the main character making jokes and the main character being the joke, a line I don’t suspect the series’ apparently huge fanbase always recognizes. The premiere is set (if not filmed) in Seoul, with Lil Dicky attempting to record a video with real-life Korean rapper/pop star CL for a song he hasn’t actually written to pander to a fandom of a genre he doesn’t actually listen to. If I had to ding Dave for any one particular element, it’s that the show still doesn’t have a clue what to do with this character, even though Ko is a completely admirable piece of the ensemble whenever she’s allowed to participate. Meanwhile, Elz (Travis “Taco” Bennett) is off on tour somewhere (but eventually returns) and Emma (Christine Ko) is … I’m honestly not completely sure what Emma is up to, though she pops up periodically. And if he isn’t able to make music, that leaves his entourage - mostly manager Mike (Andrew Santino, spiraling interestingly) and GaTa (GaTa) - at loose ends. See, Dave is struggling creatively, despite being comfortably ensconced in a mansion in the Hollywood Hills provided by his label. Dave/Lil Dicky (Burd) remains broken up from Ally (Taylor Misiak), though he’s only beginning to understand the impact she used to have on his creative process (and audiences will feel the same way about Misiak, whose return after a couple of episodes’ absence is cause for celebration). The second season picks up roughly four months after where we left things. No, Dave isn’t quite on the level of Atlanta, but some of the tonal swings that creators Dave Burd and Jeff Schaffer are taking are comparably ambitious, even if they’re frequently buried in that aforementioned onslaught of penis jokes.
I pondered the Rosetta Stone idea a lot watching the first five episodes of the new Dave season, with the awareness that I wasn’t individually blown away by any one single episode like I was with “Hype Man.” Instead, I was collectively impressed with how well the new season maintains its creative momentum.
