When Tom, a stoic Midwest husband and dad, gets laid off from a car assembly line, he makes the extraordinary decision to provide for his family by following his dream of becoming a professional bowler. As a skilled player, Tom knows that in bowling no matter what you do with the first ball, you get another one to make it right -- the ultimate second chance. Keeping that in mind, Tom begins his new career with the loving okay from wife and the unfaltering support of Archie, his mentor and the proud owner of Archie's Lanes: Home of the Curly Fry. It remains to be seen if Tom will strike it big on the pro bowler circuit, but the pins are set and he's taking his second shot.

3/4
Katie Lowes adds a pleasant and warm presence as Tom’s wife, Jen, who works at a salon and dreams of opening her own place one day, and Mason Wells does fine work as their son, Sam. Go to Full Review Daniel D'Addario Variety Mar 30, 2022
To call it a gutter ball would suggest that the writers had tried something big and missed: What How We Roll brings to mind, instead, is risk-free bumper bowling. Go to Full Review Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter Mar 30, 2022
How We Roll‘s total lack of interest in controversy or commentary makes it easy to watch, maybe even soothing. Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media Apr 11, 2022

The lighthearted series highlights the ups and downs that come with taking big risks in hopes of reaching one's dreams. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Apr 1, 2022
As much as we like Holmes and everyone on How We Roll, we don’t see any signs that the show is going to get funnier, despite the warmth we saw in the pilot. Go to Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Mar 30, 2022
The writing and plotting by series creator Mark Gross is as pedestrian as one would fear going into this bland multi-cam sitcom. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Apr 29, 2022 I like the actors playing the characters, but the mom character is so annoying I think I have watched my last episode. She makes it unwatchable for me. See more Apr 26, 2022 One of the worst comedy shows I've ever seen. The "jokes" aren't funny, the acting stinks, and the canned laughter is more annoying than anything else. I love bowling, and had high hopes for this series.......a BIG disappointment and a huge thumbs down. See more Apr 23, 2022 I tried twice to watch this show, but I couldn't handle the laugh track going off with every word or phase the actors were saying. Both times I turned it off after 5 min of torture from the laugh track. I couldn't figure out what the actors were saying or the plot line of the show as I just kept hearing the laugh track. See more Apr 15, 2022 Slow start but growing potential as characters' personality begins to develop and expand. See more Apr 4, 2022 I'm so tired of comedies that think it's funny when characters are grumpy towards others and mean. Why are there no new comedies out there worth watching because they are just really funny? See more Apr 3, 2022 It had very little to do with Bowling (or Tom Smallwood). The supposed "PRO" bowler had 1 ball ???? And he puts his fingers all the way to the 2nd knuckle. I guess they never heard of "fingertip" which is what 99.99 % of very good bowlers use. They should let Mr. Smallwood have a say in some of these "details" See more Read all reviews
