Steve Treviño: Simple Man 2024 / Overly predictable Gen X humor that at least knows how to stick to its guns

There’s a very clear target audience for Steve Treviño’s comedy, and for that particular group it’s easy to see his appeal: he says what a lot of married couples probably have on their minds during moments of conflict, but he still doesn’t take any of it too seriously. However, to an outsider, Treviño’s comedy can’t help but come off as one-sided complaining, lacking the willingness to make himself look just as silly as the people he rants about. Not that there’s anything too mean about the things he says—the jokes as they’re written just aren’t particularly clever and don’t really say much about married life that can’t just be resolved through a little more basic empathy.
