While remaining properly, deeply funny throughout - Dave does feel like we are past the peak of manbaby comedy. Read full review

Subversively endearing. ... “Dave” has to work a little harder to present a fuller story, and that effort is worth it. Read full review

Dave is very funny. That’s not the most astute critical assessment, I know. But it’s what you probably most want to know. It’s also deeper than it has any business being, even if it never convincingly answers the question of whether this is a story that needed to be told in the first place. Read full review

Funny, vulgar, for Burd fans only. Read full review

Both Lil Dicky and Dave lean so heavily into the puerile, with only hit-and-miss comic results, that I'm not going to blame anybody unable to get as far as the fifth episode, which serves as an intended re-contextualizing of the themes of the entire show and actually succeeds on that level.

Through five half-hour episodes, it’s hard to say exactly what the show will become, or how its explicitly macho storylines fit into a culture focused on elevating women’s voices, but there looks to be more going on than the poster implies. Read full review

Watching “Dave,” though, feels somewhat like being trapped with a terrible party companion, one who both fails to meet the energy of the occasion and is an oversharer besides. It comes bearing at once too much information and too little else of what makes television work. Read full review

Took a couple of episodes to find its stride, but Dave is oustanding! Hilarious and original, with some amazing performances. Stick with it!
