The proud owner of a Spanish Harlem doughnut shop and the landlord of the building it's in must deal with an eccentric cast of characters, including an obnoxious elderly woman in a rent-controlled apartment; a delivery boy who swears he was a cardiologist back in China; a kid who harasses customers to buy items found in dumpsters; his ex-wife; and a daughter whose only flaw is her freeloading boyfriend.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Luis is an unoriginal sitcom that relies heavily on ethnic stereotypes for its jokes and provides few laughs.

Steve Johnson Chicago Tribune 11/19/2019
This Fox vehicle for character actor Luis Guzman ("Traffic," "Boogie Nights") is about as low as the sitcom craft gets. Go to Full Review
Tim Goodman San Francisco Chronicle 11/19/2019
If a sitcom works on Fox, it's generally the best comedy on TV. But when it doesn't, like "Luis" doesn't, the failure is grand. Go to Full Review
Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 11/19/2019
None of this material is even slightly original, and [Luis] Guzman... is sorely lacking in the punch-line delivery department. He over-projects, as if he were on a stage at a noisy comedy club, which, unfortunately, he isn't. Go to Full Review
