This Raunchy New Comedy Just Hit Netflix's Top 10—And Yes, I Laughed Out Loud at the Trailer
In a sea of true-crime docs and dark thrillers, sometimes you just want to watch something that won't leave you triple-checking your locks before bed. If you're anything like me, you're always on the hunt for something light, funny and a little ridiculous to balance out the heavy stuff. And clearly, I'm not alone—because one of Netflix's current Top 10 shows is a comedy series called Tires and it's already sitting pretty at number thress.
Created by Shane Gillis, Steve Gerben and John McKeever, Tires is exactly what it sounds like—a workplace comedy set in a struggling auto repair shop. The plot centers on Will (Gerben), who's doing his best to manage one of the family-owned shops in the 'Valley Forge Automotive Center' chain. His plans to turn the business around hit a major speed bump when he hires his cousin Shane (Gillis), who immediately makes it his mission to turn the place—and Will's life—into total chaos.
Think The Office, if Michael Scott was even less filtered and the HR department just… didn't exist.

Now, fair warning: this isn't your standard sitcom. Tires is TV-MA and earns every bit of that rating. The trailer alone is filled with raunchy one-liners and awkward moments that toe the line between "OMG did he just say that?" and genuine laugh-out-loud humor. And honestly? It works. I caught myself actually laughing more than once, which isn't always a given with this style of comedy.
Another major plus: there are already two seasons available to stream. Season two just dropped on June 5 and, yes, all of the episodes were released at once—no need to wait week by week (thank you, Netflix).
With a solid 90 percent on the audience score (aka the Rotten Tomatoes PopcornMeter) and enough absurd workplace antics to keep you entertained without overthinking it, Tires might just be your next easy, hilarious watch.
Tires is streaming now on Netflix.
