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 Glen Weldon NPR Mar 3
This is a very, very funny -- frequently hilarious -- series that prizes well-written, well-timed, well-delivered jokes, and that knows how to use its actors to serve them up in the best way possible. Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday Feb 24

"Fall and Rise" is a new standard for comedies. Its ups and downs are merely a different way of doing business. Go to Full Review Gene Demby Pop Culture Happy Hour (NPR Podcast) Mar 10
I like so much of the show. And it felt like a good hang but it didn't really stick to my ribs. Go to Full Review Dana Han-Klein We're Watching What?! Feb 27
This will fill the 30 Rock sized hole in your heart. Starting with episode 2 the show hits an incredible stride with esoteric and delightful humor, endearing cast chemistry, and a perfect pinch of chaos. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Andrea P @RT27993104 2h hit the mark after finishing 30 rock binge. just enough clever lines to keep it going. See more Better M @Movie_San 23h This is dull and predictable without hardly anything that’s actually funny or interesting. A real waste of a pretty talented cast. See more Melanie S @Midwaymoo 1d I NEVER watch network shows. I was too lazy to change the channel from Jeopardy. I love this show, I love its Jersey centric , I love the wink-wink, nod-nod and I NEVER laugh out loud. I did watching this. Was that Cardi B as the mail lady?. I love this show, and I don’t love nothing. See more Erica H @Erica904 3d This show is hilarious. Looking forward to at least a few seasons of this. See more Chris F @RT46056609 3d I tried, I really tried. It just never did it for me. Tracy Morgan only plays one character, ever. See more Debbie F @RT73011884 6d I found myself belly-laughing outloud especially in episode 4: Save the Cat. Rusty has the funniest lines! I am starting to appreciate the comedy, timing, and characters. I look forward to future episodes. Good acting all around! See more Read all reviews
