The fatness isn't the issue, since she's supposed to be comic relief, but I find her acting jawdroppingly incompetent. I checked out the Reddit sub and she's stubbornly defended and praised to the skies for her acting/comedic chops.
Here's a compilation clip of her performances on Hacks.
I found her so jarringly bad I almost thought she was the inspiration of the Maria Sophia character on Curb, except that character might predate her.
I can't remember seeing acting this poor on a comedy series, especially not on HBO.
As for one of the two leads, Einbinder, all I hear when she opens her mouth is Michael Cera
The show is not funny. They actually have Einbinder saying “I still have my dignity” then following it with a pratfall, for frick's sakes. However there are titties in one episode.
