Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Back on the road, the Parkers begrudgingly stop to eat at a nauseatingly, culturally insensitive, roadside restaurant and dinner theater called Conquistadors.

Our Take

The Conquistadors dinner theater premise sounds funnier than it plays, and the show leans hard on easy jokes about cultural insensitivity without finding much beneath them. Natalie Zea and Jason Jones still sell the couple’s bickering, but the kids get sidelined this week. A forgettable middle-of-the-road episode that coasts on the leads’ chemistry. Fine if you’re already committed to the season.
