At Crenshaw House, a halfway facility, supervisor Kenny Carlisle tries to rehabilitate a dysfunctional group of recent parolees, including Eulogio Pia, a male prostitute who trades sex for favors; Carly Barzac, a drug trafficker who finds old habits die hard; Alan Shepherd, a fire-obsessed dweeb; Serenity Johnson, whose first name belies a rap sheet for armed robbery; and Sebastian "C-Bass" Yates, a terrorist wannabe.

Belinda Acosta Austin Chronicle 10/08/2019
Overall, the cast appears to be having a good time, making you root for them even when they don't quite hit the mark. Go to Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 10/08/2019
Ultimately, even when the humor fails, the characters are kind of dear. There's a bit of inspired zaniness lurking in Comedy Central's latest attempt to find another "South Park." Go to Full Review Brian Lowry Variety 10/08/2019

The humor is mostly rawer than a vegan diet. But the cast of Halfway Home definitely knows how to work it. Go to Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 10/08/2019
Occasionally funny, largely improvised show about people who live in a halfway house. (It would have made a better 10-minute sketch than a series of half-hour episodes.) Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Andrew F @RT15777998 05/06/2022 An overlooked classic. Has a breakout Octavia Spencer performance and frequent scene-stealing from the rest of the cast. It's a real shame this show never blew up. See more Read all reviews
