It’s amusing alone to see them [Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins] here as neurotic daytime killers, even if their comic scenarios here can be big misses or big hits. Thanks to their always reliable chemistry, “Hitmen” is funny enough with its dark comedy that makes for equally light viewing.

"Hitmen" won't change the way you look at the pair, for better or worse . . . which means that if you weren't Mel and Sue fans before, this show isn't going to change that – but neither will it turn off their constituency. But it might broaden the scope of how we see two women typically cast as hosts, who deserve their shot at being something heavier and a bit more sinister – but sugary nevertheless.

In GBBO terms, there's nothing resembling a showstopper here, but it's perfectly proficient as a technical challenge. ... Most of the time, though, it's a three-person show, which means episodes largely succeed or fail depending on the guest actor of the week's chemistry with Giedroyc and Perkins.

Perkins sells it and I'm buying it. The only negative thing I can think to say about this first season is that the commercial cuts are jarringly poor.
