Collider Allison Keene

Season 2 Review: Even for casual viewers, the episodic jokes and the sheer earnestness that radiates from Sam and Tim should be enough of a hook. In a sea of dark TV, Detroiters is the light-hearted, smart comedy with a wonderfully sincere core that we need. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Detroiters isn’t looking to shock viewers, or deliver any big social satire about life in the Motor City. It just wants to invite them into its tree fort, pull up the ladder, and tell a bunch of weird, delightful jokes. Read full review

Season 2 Review: The comedy is always doing something good--and that’s beyond the many laughs drawn from all kinds of comedy, physical to observational to blunt force. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The premiere is the strongest, largely because Sudeikis is the perfect serious foil to Richardson and Robinson. (Sudeikis isn’t a regular cast member, but according to press materials, he will reprise his role as the Chrysler rep.) Without him, the show is a weirder journey, one that de-emphasizes story for the more elusive quality of atmosphere. But it’s a bizarre, rollicking joy to watch. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Richardson and Robinson make for likable leads and Detroiters is savvy and funny in many ways, but what really made it work for me was the admirable affection that comes from its love for Detroit. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Richardson and Robinson’s laid back approach to rolling out comedy--and especially the former’s addictively amiable nature--makes for consistent chuckles that can develop into hearty guffaws. It’s a soft sell you won’t regret buying the next morning, and one that could pay off even bigger in weeks to come. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Robinson is solid and Richardson continues to be one of television's funniest actors, but we're just not buying what Detroiters is selling. [Feb 3/10 2017, p.102]
