The chain seems innocuous enough from a consumer perspective, offering a wide array of groceries and everyday products alongside liquor, firearms, ammo, and just about anything else you might find in a real-life Costco. Beneath the surface, however, Cloud 9 corporate is shown to be quite draconian, in a skewering satire of modern capitalism that will leave you with as much laughter as it does frustration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Cloud 9 superstore does not offer any of its employees health insurance, paid maternity leave, or even overtime, regardless of the grueling hours demanded by the employee handbook. Employee bathroom breaks are also strictly monitored and charted, in a clear jab at real headlines regarding the treatment of <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/amazon\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Amazon;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Amazon<\/a> workers who may have been forced to urinate and defecate in bottles and bags while actively working.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While <em>Superstore<\/em> showcases a number of hilarious and relatable workplace struggles, it also delivers some fascinating character adventures with its high-quality cast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Despite being hooked on the show today, I had never actually seen an episode of <em>Superstore<\/em> until after the series concluded in 2021. I was first enticed by a hilarious <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/youtube\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:YouTube;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">YouTube<\/a> compilation that showcased the blink-and-you\u2019ll-miss-it interstitial moments, which often highlight random customers doing something completely unhinged when they believe nobody is looking. From there, I began binge-viewing the first season, and the rest is history.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\"><strong>One Of The Best Sitcoms Of The Past Decade<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"&lt;em&gt;Superstore&lt;\/em&gt;\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/LqBTACkC0E21woaPc8rSPg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/bf84ccf1d928640db9b1431cf9787936\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><em>Superstore<\/em><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Audiences and critics alike seem to agree that <em>Superstore<\/em> was one of the best shows on TV when it was airing, making it a real shame that some viewers like myself weren\u2019t on board sooner.
