You’ll actually laugh out loud, and you can’t say that about most TV comedies. Go to Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Jul 1, 2026
4/5
The jokes start early in this mockumentary, and they never stop: absurd reasoning, ludicrous digs, cutaways to past embarrassments, and pop-culture punchlines all populate The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. It is a genuinely funny concoction. Go to Full Review Amber Dowling Globe and Mail Mar 5, 2026
Like most comedies, it takes a while for the characters to click, and by the end of the 10-episode run, the viewers become a part of that world, with all its inside jokes and quirks. Go to Full Review André Didyme-Dôme Rolling Stone en Español Aug 14, 2026
The series, meanwhile, achieves something far more important: reminding us why Tracy Morgan remains one of the greatest comedians in American television history. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Rachel Ho Exclaim! Jul 23, 2026
The perfect sitcom for the summer months: mindless and full of laughs. Go to Full Review Marlon Wallace The M Report (WBOC.com) Jun 1, 2026
...the show leans more toward Arthur and his relationship with Reggie rather than much else... It becomes a running joke that Arthur isn't really getting to know things about Reggie's past or much of his life prior to his current situation. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Constance S @Constance945 2 days ago It was very good imo. I think Radcliffe is well suited for comedy, and glad to see Moynihan in something. See more Kathleen M @vernaperma Aug 22, 2026 Really funny and surprisingly warm. It has that kind of comedy where you start laughing at the ridiculousness and then suddenly realize you're actually rooting for everyone. See more Stephen D @RT37880768 Aug 9, 2026 The joke-per-minute ratio isn't quite up there with other Fey projects, but still hard to complain about a show that makes me laugh this much - often just with little throwaway gags or asides. See more Sherie C @SherSher Jul 17, 2026 I tried. I really did! But it just is difficult to like the characters! See more Meghan C @meg91113 Jun 9, 2026 Such an incredible show, fantastic casting, laugh out loud funny, truly the only reason I have peacock right now See more Shawna E @RT27570941 May 25, 2026 I like it. Humorous. The pace and humor reminds me a little of 30 Rock. Fresh and funny. See more Read all reviews
