Netflix is ready to push boundaries with its upcoming dark comedy series, Bad Thoughts, premiering on May 13, 2025. Created by stand-up comedian Tom Segura, the six-episode anthology explores the chaotic, uncomfortable, and hilariously wrong side of everyday life.
What Is Bad Thoughts About?
Bad Thoughts is a sketch-style dark comedy that dives into the absurdity of human behavior and societal expectations. Each episode presents a standalone vignette—some strange, others offensive, but all unapologetically funny. Think Black Mirror meets David Cronenberg, but with the punchlines of a comedian on mushrooms.
From satirical takes on political correctness to cringe-worthy social commentary, the show doesn’t hold back. The official trailer teases surreal setups, unsettling truths, and scenarios that walk the line between hilarious and horrifying.
