Allison gets a new job (and wig) in an exclusive Kevin Can F**K Himself finale clip
Here's a sneak peek into what Allison McRoberts has been up to since leaving Worcester
Allison McRoberts, who? That’s exactly what Kevin Can F**K Himself wants you to ask as it heads into its series finale. AMC’s subversive series switches from multi-cam to single-cam, examining how classic sitcoms tend to treat their female characters. The show follows Allison (Annie Murphy), a typical sitcom wife—dutiful, beautiful, you know the drill—who’s had enough of her selfish husband Kevin’s (Eric Petersen) manipulation and buffoonery. Every time he’s on screen, KCFH takes place under bright lights and a laugh track, while the scenes from Allison’s point-of-view occur in gritty single-cam.
She spends season one trying and spectacularly failing to kill him, assuming it’s her only way out. In the process, Allison finds a friend for life in her neighbor, Patty (Mary Hollis Inboden), who helps out with her murderous mission. In season two, Allison realizes she can just fake her own death and escape instead. She figures out all the details but ultimately decides to stay in Worcester, Massachusetts. Unfortunately, as seen in last week’s penultimate episode, she has no choice but to leave to save Patty from potential criminal charges. So off she goes, assuming a brand new identity as Gertrude Fronch, while most of her loved ones believe she died in a hiking accident. So what’s Allison doing now?
