Critic Reviews

Nancy DeWolf Smith

After the static and bloodless world of “The Girlfriend Experience,” the Showtime comedy Dice is like an explosion of heat and vigor and passion. Read full review

Christian Holub

It is brimming with weirdness--such as the Elvis impersonator who keeps following Dice like a bad-luck charm or guest star Adrien Brody mimicking Dice's mannerisms for a Method acting exercises--which bumps up against its ornery protagonist in funny ways. [15 Apr 2016, p.48]

The show works better when Dice is in sitcom mode, rather than trying to stretch his dramatic chops. Read full review

Dice is mostly a warmed-over attempt to ape Larry David’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” with just a dose of the existential despair seen in Louis C.K.’s “Louie.” Read full review

An episode featuring Criss Angel, the “Mindfreak” illusionist, is also quite funny, and practically every installment is enlivened with attention-getting guest stars from the Las Vegas scene. But the series, created by Scot Armstrong, invests an awful lot in the comedic value of crassness, and the result is only a 50-50 success rate. Read full review

Dice has its moments of levity but struggles to maintain a regular comedic pace. Read full review

Daniel D'Addario

Apr 18, 2016

Dice is unwilling to give Clay qualities beyond abrasiveness and unequipped to craft for him an insightful line. Leggero, co-creator of Comedy Central's terrific Another Period, is wasted, while cameos by Adrien Brody and Wayne Newton go nowhere. Read full review

I had to write a positive review to counteract the negative reviews. This show is really funny. Dice is not afraid to make fun of himself and really shows what "Vegas" life is like. The show makes really good use of guest stars as well - Adrian Brody and Criss Angel stand out. You don'tI had to write a positive review to counteract the negative reviews.

Just sit back relax and spend some time with the Diceman. Ohhh. Aaaagish.… Expand

This is a great show. Dice was always the type of comedian who was entertaining even if he wasn't making you laugh outright. Perfect timing and delivery, good writer and despite the vile nature of much of his humor, he always had subtlety that often went overlooked. All of this stillThis is a great show. Dice was always the type of comedian who was entertaining even if he wasn't making you laugh outright. Perfect timing and delivery, good writer and despite the vile nature of much of his humor, he always had subtlety that often went overlooked. All of this still holds with his new show. Dice's skit comedy has always been less known than his stand up, but was always great; this show really highlights that side of him. Much of the humor is classic Dice, but now has a softer, more self-deprecating side and more nuance as well. The cameos are great, Natasha Leggero is excellent, and the stories are funny in a very Vegas type of way. The directing could be a bit better, as the flow of the episodes is at times a bit choppy (preventing a score of 10), but Dice himself is an excellent actor, as demonstrated several times recently in his career. I hope this new Showtime series is renewed.… Expand

This show is so entertaining! Dice's self deprecating demeanor is hilarious. There are so many laughs during a 30 minute program. Way funnier then I expected.

This is terrible, do not bother with at all. Tepid at best and will be cancelled mid season I think.

I have to write 50 more letters for this and I have nothing else to say!
