Sep 25, 2014The show just seems like a vehicle for the cute little ditties Micucci and Lindhome write for their stand up act. The show could use a bit more biting wit (like the sports parody) and a little less cuteness but I guess that would be incongruous with the personalities of the two stars.

While the pilot sets the series off to a rather slow start, once you warm to the unique pace and rhythms of their comic delivery, Garfunkel and Oates makes for an endearing half hour experience.
-
The first episode is the weakest of the three I've seen, with some good moments but too couched in the nominal premise of struggling performers trying to make it in show business. The sex humor feels similarly conventional. Things quickly improve, however, as the women get stranger and more idiosyncratic.

They found a way to marry the innate cuteness of their wide-eyed unison singing with frank lyrics to hilarious effect. When the show figures out how to do the same, it will be a force to be reckoned with, but as it stands now, it’s more confused than anything else.
