‘Paul T. Goldman’ blends fiction and reality in a way that’s as odd as it is funny

The term “hybrid” is thrown around too loosely in entertainment, but it genuinely applies to “Paul T. Goldman,” a Peacock series from the director of the “Borat” sequel that combines fiction with sort-of reality, scripted with a behind-the-scenes “making of” docuseries. Quirky and odd, the show’s main point feels like the fact we’re all the heroes of our story, at least in our own highly subjective eyes.The term “hybrid” is thrown around too loosely in entertainment, but it genuinely applies to “Paul T.
