Alternatino isn't yet as sharp as Key & Peele or Inside Amy Schumer, but it's on the right track in its first season. Go to Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com 07/22/2019

02/16/2020 Worthy successor to Key & Peele. See more 11/23/2019 Best comedy sketch series I've watched in a very long time. Arturo is super charismatic and the humor is light-hearted, even though it often dwells on tricky subjects. I really enjoyed this first season.
