‘Fubar’ Season 2 review: Arnold Schwarzenegger is back to drive this middling spy comedy
Fubaris back for its second season with just as many call-backs to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s blockbuster movie career. There is him dancing the Tango with the sexy former spy and lover, Greta Nelso (Carrie-Anne Moss), reminding one of True Lies. He also says his catch phrase from the Terminator movies, “I’ll be back.”
There are other reminders of True Lies peppered all through the eight episodes of the spy comedy, from James Cameron (who directed True Lies) lending a deep sea exploration vessel to using sodium pentothal as a truth serum and Tom Arnold (who plays Schwarzenegger’s friend in True Lies) as ace interrogator, Norm Carlson.
There is mention of other Schwarzenegger blockbusters, including Total Recall and a riff on Schwarzenegger’s one-liners, with him confessing, “Sometimes I kill a guy and I cannot even come up with a funny line.” When a show gets that meta, it does not bode well.
