College can be a transformative time, full of upheaval for students who are not yet adults, but much freer than they were under the roofs of their parents. Enter the dorm scene's pseudo-managers -- the resident advisors. They're the focus of the new comedy from Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman (the minds behind"Pitch Perfect" and its sequel). Resident advisor is a job, so it's sort of a workplace comedy, but it's a workplace unlike any other, rife with sex, drugs and the added pressure of midterms. And the RAs in Hutcherson Dorm at Thoreau College have their hands full, from team-building exercises and motivational speakers to concerns about binge drinking and a lockdown in the building. At the end of the day, though, these RAs know how to deal with their responsibilities, and how to let loose and enjoy life.

David Hinckley New York Daily News 03/04/2020
Unfortunately, "Resident Advisors" settles too often for familiar college hijinks and obvious sex gags that do nothing a hundred broadcast sitcoms haven't already handled. Go to Full Review

Hulu is giving us, as its latest original series, an amateurish Animal House knockoff called Resident Advisors that is very bad stuff indeed. Go to Full Review

06/16/2015 I thought the comedy level was similar to Pitch Perfect in that it was funny at times and over-the-top corny at times. It was a short series. It almost felt like it had no point. It had some entertaining moments, but it was one of those shows I didn't understand why I was watching it, but kept wanting to know if it would get better. SPOILER: It didn't.
