Ep 6 “Peggy’s Pageant Fever” leans into Peggy’s overconfidence and competitive streak, placing her squarely in a setting that pokes fun at her earnest self-image.
The episode’s humour is uneven: some visual gags and contests of vanity land well, while other jokes feel diffuse amid the pageant’s busy beats. Peggy’s interactions with the event and its other contestants reveal both her ambition and blind spots, giving the episode a character-driven core even when the broader satire feels scattered. Hank’s reactions provide a grounded counterweight, gently reminding the audience why his perspective matters.
Overall, the episode is amusing when it zeroes in on Peggy’s self-perception, though it doesn’t always sustain its momentum.
