  Created by Jon Glaser, Delocated is a live-action mockumentary series about a man in witness protection (known only as 'Jon') who agrees to have a reality show made about his life, forcing him and his family to wear ski masks and have their voices distorted. The humor is derived from the awkwardness of the premise, the protagonist's narcissism, and the strange situations they find themselves in. While less purely surreal than Xavier, it shares a commitment to an offbeat, uncomfortable premise and a distinctive style.

  This live-action comedy follows 'Jon Glaser' (playing a fictionalized version of himself), a man in the witness protection program who agrees to star in a reality show about his life, provided his face is always blurred or he wears a ski mask. The premise leads to inherently awkward and surreal situations as he navigates mundane life while trying to remain hidden. It's a masterclass in deadpan humor and finding absurdity in everyday constraints.
