Review:
Rating: Watch it / It depends / [Skip it]
  • This feels like a Saturday Night Live skit adapted to a drama. Keegan-Michael Key hams up every scene he's in and it rarely makes sense in the context of a drama. He could do the exact same thing in a SNL skit and it would fit the scene.
    The audacious scenes are broken up with boilerplate drama, romances and affairs. This could be a likeable sit-com if it was toned down to be simple and funny. I didn't watch all the episodes, but I can only take so much.
Read my Season 1 full review.
