    Based on a preview of two episodes, Idiotsitter is fairly amusing.

    The talent involved is enough to ensure that Comedy Central’s latest is vaguely amusing, but Idiotsitter should have been more riotous than amiable, more uniquely ruthless than blandly juvenile.

I am a huge fan of Comedy Central's shows, especially Broad City (love those girls!) and Workaholics, but Idiotsitter is fast becoming my absolute favorite out of the three!

Newhouse in particular pulls off the role of hopelessly awkward adult-nanny Billie Brown with a consistency that is nothing short of charming, while both bring to the table an extraordinarily sharp grasp of comic timing. Occasionally uneven pacing does little to deter from the rich humor on display here, and I frankly can't recommend it enough.

    P.S: Stephen Root is fantastic in this, so, you know, come on y'all.    … Full Review »
