Bordertown, despite sometimes stooping to pick low-hanging fruit, is actually surprisingly smart and funny, an equal-opportunity offender that energetically rips into every side of the immigration debate while demonstrating enough of an absurdist streak to balance out its snark.

Season 1 Review:
Bordertown isn't the racist, xenophobic mess you might fear ... but it suffers from exactly the sort of blurry perspective you'd expect from a show that was originally ordered over two years ago — the kind of tonal and storytelling unevenness you'd expect from a still-settling new comedy and a lack of appealing characters that makes it hard to want to return to see how the show evolves.

Season 1 Review:
The jokes that do take on topical issues rely on cheap stereotypes (about both Mexicans and working-class whites) rather than anything insightful. The character design makes everyone look ugly and vapid, which at least matches the dialogue that comes out of their mouths.
