Season 2 Review:
It all manages to leap above the high bar set by the first [season], landing on something both raucously funny and reflective. Each joke is packed full of meaning that explodes into interesting places that never fall into any tropes, pushing back against our expectations to great comedic effect.

Season 2 Review:
Rutherford Falls keeps the momentum going up until the credits roll. Not only is Rutherford Falls an enjoyable watch, but the sitcom thoughtfully dissects American culture and centers Native stories. There’s no dearth of excellent television right now, but this heartwarming, funny, and boundary-breaking show is a must-see.

Season 1 Review:
Where the sitcom shines — and, like early “Parks,” shows a promising upward trajectory — is in fleshing out the Minishonka community. ... The show’s biggest problem is structural, but it’s fixable. “Rutherford Falls” treats Nathan as a colead, but really Reagan is its center. She’s at the fulcrum of all the tensions, and Schmieding is an out-of-the-box charismatic star.

Season 1 Review:
There’s a caustically funny show buried somewhere beneath “Rutherford Falls.” ... But by playing both sides of a very hot topic, “Rutherford Falls” fails to hum, roar or even sputter to any satisfying degree. You can feel the brakes being applied, and the consequent lurch. The one truly sympathetic character in the show is Nathan’s best friend and pariah-of-the-reservation Reagan Wells (Jana Schmieding).

This is an excellent show. The first episode was ok, but it continued to pick up one after another, and by the end its as funny and lovable as anything Michael Schur has done

It's fine. I get what it's doing and sometimes it works. Ed Helms isn't great. The rest of the cast is fantastic. Hopefully season 2 is better.

Really painfully unfunny. The plot and characters seem so forced. I really wanted to like it but after forcing myself through about half of the 1st season I just couldn't keep forcing myself to watch more.
