    Mind you, vomit can be very funny; it’s just not funny here. Neither is 99% of what goes on in each episode, but there’s a potent sense of bemusement to everything, a fakeness bordering on overt coyness.

That being said I almost couldn't get through the first episode, not because of the gore but I just didn't find it funny. It veered into dumb territory and I like Timothy Olliphant but I don't think he works. #fail… Full Review »

    There's nothing really new or clever here, the characters kinda work together, but they don't ever feel quite like they really know each other, but it kinda melds okay. Unfortunately, this is definitely only half of a season. The entire thing ends so abruptly I was certain there was more. I'll come back to watch the second season, but I'm also pretty likely just to forget this even exists by the time that happens.

    In the end, it's a fun little diversion if you don't have anything else really burning on your watch list, but there's a lot better out there too.    … Full Review »
