Actress/comic Amy Sedaris opens her "home" to viewers in this comedy series. Rolling out the welcome mat means Amy must use her varied -- but necessary -- homemaking skills, from creating popsicle stick buddies and gutting a fish to crocheting miniature sweaters and entertaining businessmen. Each episode revolves around traditional themes like grieving, poverty, lovemaking, and wood, and Sedaris is front and center as she showcases her imaginative characters and unique viewpoint. Playing themselves, guest stars include Rachel Dratch, Chris Elliott, Jane Krakowski, Stephen Colbert and Heather Lawless.

At Home With Amy Sedaris is itself a disturbing and delicious beast, a sendup of TV home shows that draws on Ms. Sedaris's sunshiny comic versatility to explore the dark oddities in the back of the spice cabinet. Go to Full Review

If you ever thought that daytime lifestyle shows needed more of Jane Krakowski belting, then Amy Sedaris has some wonderful news for you. Go to Full Review
Touré Entertainment Weekly 11/30/2017
It's this constant mocking of the expectations of femininity and being a woman and the things you're supposed to know and the things you're supposed to do. And I love how she keeps attacking that. Go to Full Review

She's never quite saturated the culture, and so those of us who love her are regularly left wanting more. With At Home with Amy Sedaris, at last we get our fix. Go to Full Review
Tori Preston Pajiba 09/11/2018
All I know is that I laughed harder during Tuesday night's back-to-back premiere episodes than I have at any other new show this season. Go to Full Review
Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez Tom & Lorenzo 06/06/2018
What's slightly unexpected is how often it veers completely away from that format into something closer to an old-school variety show, except with a heavy dose of left-turn surrealism. Go to Full Review

05/21/2019 This is a great show, Amy Sedaris is funny and I love the retro/vintage vibe she has and brings to the show. Great celebrity guests she has on the show, also great cast members and the characters are charming I like this show. See more 03/15/2019 Totally off the wall. See more 03/12/2019 I have seen several episodes of At Home with Amy Sedaris. The show is a comedy that seems like some combination of Rachel Ray, Life Hacks, and the craziest satirical comedy you could think of. It is generally well put together, and in small doses (such as 1/2 an episode), it actually can be comical and enjoyable. However, the comedy can be quite childish, and not unlike a heavy sweet such as cotton candy, exposure to this in excess of 1/2 an episode becomes a little bit too much to handle for this 25 year old viewer. As such, it is difficult to rate the show anything higher than a neutral 3 stars, as this viewer believes that a truly balanced work will maintain viewer enthusiasm across many demographics and without consideration to length (ie, why the masses continue to be captivated by works such as Titanic despite an incredible runtime). See more 02/06/2018 Episodes 2, 3, 5, and 6, are Outstanding! Everything else but Episode 4 are just average. This season started out fairly strong, but then got bad by the end, just in terms of a comparison between the two "half's!" See more 12/20/2017 Fingers crossed for a second season! See more 12/15/2017 This is the worst show I've ever seen. I don't understand what people see in this show. I can keep the channel on TruTV all day long everyday until her show comes on then I have to change it. Sorry just my opinion it's so annoying, she is full of herself. See more Read all reviews
