Family Coup (2022) is a quirky blend of comedy and history, taking a rather unconventional approach to depict the familial struggles of Pinochet's household. The series cleverly juxtaposes the sternness of the anti-communist regime with the whimsical presence of Allende's spirit, creating a surreal yet engaging atmosphere. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, which may throw some viewers off, but it adds to the offbeat charm. The practical effects used for Allende's spirit are charmingly low-tech, fitting well with the show's nostalgic 70s and 80s sitcom roots. Performances are a mixed bag, with some actors really leaning into the absurdity while others play it more straight, making the dynamics within the family even more interesting to analyze.
