View Details Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Man With a Plan Season 1 All Critics (29) | Top Critics (15) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (23) [Matt LeBlanc's] still got the old charm - just not much of a showcase for it. Oct 20, 2016 | Rating: C- | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic The premise of Man With a Plan is a model of un-imagination. Oct 20, 2016 | Full Review… Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Top Critic LeBlanc also is angling for one last long sitcom ride, and Man With A Plan seems like a decent bet to give it to him. Oct 20, 2016 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Seeing LeBlanc in Man With a Plan hurts more than when he tried to take Joey out on his own. At least that spinoff focused on a likable guy who knew he was a dumb-dumb. Oct 25, 2016 | Rating: D | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic As the series settles into itself hopefully the writing will switch gears... There's plenty of comedy to be mined... Until it does, it's hard to say why this is worth your time. Oct 25, 2016 | Full Review… Amber Dowling TheWrap Top Critic Man with a Plan just makes you wish he'd take his sincere befuddlement elsewhere, someplace that mattered. Simply put, Matt LeBlanc is too good to be this irrelevant. Oct 24, 2016 | Rating: C- | Full Review… Tom Long Detroit News Top Critic The main problem with Man with a Plan is that it simply isn't funny. Oct 20, 2016 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review… Adrienne Jones CinemaBlend In the words of Joey himself: "Why, God, why?" Oct 20, 2016 | Rating: D- | Full Review… Dave Nemetz TV Line There are opportunities here for something more interesting than what develops, which is laced with needlessly crass jokes and (no real humor), but the show clearly has no plans to explore that. Oct 27, 2016 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider Stay-at-home dad figures it out in goofy parenting comedy. Oct 25, 2016 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media Not the most original premise, nor one fraught with much humor. Oct 25, 2016 | Full Review… Roger Catlin rogercatlin.com LeBlanc does what he can with the role, but the writing is so far below the bar set by Friends, it's almost unfair of Man With a Plan to beg a comparison. Oct 25, 2016 | Rating: 4.5/10 | Full Review… Zach Hollwedel Under the Radar View All Critic Reviews (29) Audience Reviews for Man With a Plan: Season 1 Jun 05, 2020 We love this show!!!!!!! It's our best comedy of the week.... Please pick it back up.... Look at what the audience says not Rotten Tomatoes.... People love it!!!!! Please...... Danny R Dec 20, 2017 Love this show. The two leads have great chemistry and the show is hilarious, as well as extremely underrated. Holly N Dec 04, 2017 This show is HILARIOUS what a first season! Love LeBlanc and Sneyder's performance & they are perfectly cast together. Millie W Nov 30, 2017 The cast dynamic fits well with the situational comedy. I don't think it has failed to make me laugh yet. John I Oct 25, 2017 liza and Matt great chemistry May 24, 2017 I watched the entire season, and will maybe watch Season 2. It's not very good or funny, but I like seeing Matt LeBlanc and Kevin Nealon, and they both give great performances (in my opinion) that also help the show be funnier. Andruw F May 15, 2017 A good comedy finally! Denice P Mar 13, 2017 Really fun family comedy. I really enjoy it M c Mar 13, 2017 Very funny that cast works off each other very well laugh out loud funny Jim M Mar 12, 2017 So funny the professional critics just can't comprehend it.
