Alex Bonifer On The AMC Series “Kevin Can F*** Himself,” The Groundlings, Boston & More

Set in Worcester, Massachusetts, AMC series Kevin Can F**k Himself probes the secret life of a type of woman we all grew up believing we knew: the prototypical sitcom wife. Allison McRoberts (played by Annie Murphy, Schitt’s Creek) is married to self-centered and “lovable” cable guy Kevin (played by Eric Petersen, Kirstie), but after a dark discovery, Allison teams up with neighbor Patty O’Connor (played by Mary Hollis Inboden, The Righteous Gemstones) to take drastic measures to escape her confines and take control of her life. The innovative series implies that Allison has serious plans to kill Kevin.

One of the lead characters on Kevin Can F**k Himself is Neil O’Connor, as played by Alex Bonifer. Bonifer is a long-standing main company performer within The Groundlings. Other credits for Bonifer include NBC’s Superstore, Netflix’s City Of Ghosts, and the independent film Film Fest; The Hype caught up with filmmaker Marshall Cook and star Will Sasso from Film Fest for an interview last year.

On August 25, 2022, I had the pleasure of speaking with Alex Bonifer via Zoom, as embedded below. More on Bonifer and Kevin Can F**k Himself can be found online by clicking here, here and here.
