Jan 18, 2021What is wrong with the critics? This new series from Tina Fey is every bit as funny as 30 Rock. Ted Danson is his usual entertaining self and Holly Hunter is terrific as his political frenemy. I had doubts about this for maybe the first 5 minutes of the first episode but 3 episodes in my girlfriend and I absolutely love it.

May 11, 2021How many sitcoms does it take to finally teach producers that Ted D is no longer funny?
He was bad in The Good Place. This is even worse.
A few of the supporting cast are adequate, especially the “daughter.” Most of the supporting cast are bad and do little to help the show.
Awards & Rankings

It’s neither risqué nor hugely original, but as lockdown hits have shown us, sometimes people want the pixelated equivalent of a warm blanket and a glass of milk.

A kinder variant of Veep, and toothless as political satire, Mayor excels at zany offhand absurdities. [18-31 Jan 2021, p.10]

Danson does a bit of the goofiness we saw to better effect in “The Good Place” and Hunter is so stern it’s surprising someone didn’t pull her aside and point out this is a comedy. Stray bits of information (like a straw ban in Los Angeles) bring a smile; direct steals (how to spell “syzygy” was a plot point in “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”) suggest someone didn’t do due diligence.
