    The art is pleasant but generic. .... “Praise Petey” [is] a little edgy, or creepy, but also a trifle unbalanced, given the job of making New Utopia somewhat appealing — “acceptable” might be the better word — to the viewer and finding something charming in its members’ deluded self-abasement.

    STREAM IT, but we’re definitely giving you the head’s up that the gag-heavy first few episodes of Praise Petey may turn you off as you also realize that you haven’t laughed much during a particular episode.

    Were the series sharper or more ambitious in other areas, these occasional giggles might feel like enough. But it’s not, and so the parts of Praise Petey that work are spread through long stretches of stuff that’s just kind of there. This includes the show’s attempts to grapple with its own core premise.
