Created by and starring Jillian Bell ("Workaholics") and Charlotte Newhouse, the half-hour scripted series "Idiotsitter" follows cash-strapped Harvard grad Billie, who answers a babysitting ad to make ends meet. Thinking that she'll be caring for a 7-year-old girl, Billie finds out what is actually needed is a court-appointed guardian for mega-rich womanchild Gene, who's under house arrest in her dad's mansion. Stuck with each other, the strange bedfellows develop a friendship that reaches new depths of depravity.

Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 01/14/2016
For all the self-protective aggressiveness and passive aggressiveness on display, Idiotsitter is tender at its core and toward its characters; it stands up for education and for paying attention. Go to Full Review

There could be a good show here in time, and soon, but this first episode is about as slow as riding a pony on a highway. Go to Full Review
Ken Tucker Yahoo! TV 01/14/2016
Idiotsitter, a smartly crass comedy, plays like a treatment for a wacky buddy-movie, shrunk to a smaller scale for TV. Go to Full Review
