Kevin Finn is struggling. Directionless and cluelessly self-serving, he seems to be drifting ever closer to total despair. With his life spiraling further and further out of control, he heads home to seek refuge with his widowed twin sister, Amy, and her young daughter. On his first night there, life takes an unexpected turn when he receives an unlikely celestial being named Yvette, who has a mission for him: to save the world. It's going to take a lot of trial and error, but maybe a bigger purpose is exactly what he's needed all along.

Kevin (Probably) Saves the World isn't perfect, but as it waffles between natural charisma and a slightly forced concept, it's better than it could be. Go to Full Review
Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 10/25/2017
The logline for this light drama ... suggests an offbeat show with potential, but it does not work well in execution. Go to Full Review
Scott D. Pierce Salt Lake Tribune 10/21/2017
[Jason] Ritter and the rest of the cast are certainly likable; 'Kevin' tries to be heartfelt and somehow meaningful - but it just doesn't come together. Go to Full Review
Roger Catlin rogercatlin.com 10/04/2017
There's a kind of celestial vagueness over the proceedings in which, like The Good Place, there's just supposed to be a universal ethical understanding of good and bad. it comes off as half-baked theology and television drama. Go to Full Review
