Season 1 Review: In just six episodes, F Is For Family will certainly make you laugh, but its dramatic heft is so unexpectedly huge that it might also move you to tears. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It’s a bitter, but deeply empathetic portrayal of suburban malaise and depression that also doubles as a very funny TV show. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The show itself is very promising, albeit uneven, as almost any young comedy is, and fits neatly into the dark and very adult animated comedy brand Netflix started for itself with the great "BoJack Horseman." Read full review

Season 1 Review: The semi-serialized six-episode run has a dark, bittersweet quality, but despite some clever moments, F generally merits no more than a “B.” Read full review

Dec 8, 2015

Season 1 Review: The sadness and unrest in F Is for Family tempers the humor and keeps the show from ever getting too frivolous. The family of its title gives the show a hopeful core, but it's always looking around the corner for the next stumbling block, so mostly, F Is for Family is entertainingly honest. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The show is funny, but a not-always-subtle flip side makes the jokes funny as well. Inevitably, we view it all through both our personal lens and through contemporary sensibilities. Read full review

Dec 16, 2015

Season 1 Review: The tone is more restrained than outrageous, but Burr and Price don’t have a strong enough perspective to compensate for the mediocre humor. Their average family is a little too average. Read full review

What starts as a simple show about life in the 70's gradually turns into a powerful study on male generational trauma. The first season starts slow, but every subsequent season improves on the last, culminating in one of the best finales I've seen in an animated series. Highly recommended ifWhat starts as a simple show about life in the 70's gradually turns into a powerful study on male generational trauma.
