Netflix Releases Tom Segura’s Dark Comedy Series ‘Bad Thoughts’

Tom Segura has launched a new Netflix series titled "Bad Thoughts," a six-episode dark comedy that delves into his unfiltered psyche through a series of surreal and disturbing vignettes. The show, which Segura created, stars in, and directs, pushes boundaries with grotesque, absurd scenarios that challenge conventional humor and decency, blending elements reminiscent of "Black Mirror" and David Cronenberg's style. To promote the series, Segura screened episodes for his mother, Rosario "Charo" Lazarte, whose visceral and highly negative reactions—including calling the show "disgusting" and "an insult to humanity"—have become a focal point in marketing the series. Despite her disapproval and pleas to cancel the show, Segura embraces the controversy, highlighting that the humor aligns with his established comedic style that often targets his mother with morbid and offensive material. "Bad Thoughts" is now available for streaming on Netflix, catering to fans of Segura's stand-up and podcast work who appreciate his raw and unapologetic comedic voice. The series is distinguished by its high production quality and darkly comedic exploration of taboo and chaotic human thoughts.
