Critic Reviews

Robert Lloyd

Sweet, lyrical and a little cracked, it's worth seeking out. Read full review

Brian Lowry

The episodes don't really go anywhere, but the star-writer-producer has a genial Everyman presence and surrounds himself with a rich array of characters. Read full review

Ray Richmond

The single-camera Somebodies concept is gentle and easygoing and character-driven, which potentially makes it a pleasant, earnest little outpost, if not necessarily anything that's going to push primetime in bold new directions. Read full review

Joanna Weiss

It's a single-camera comedy that comes close, at times, to feeling like a live-action cartoon. It's not as hilariously cutting as "Chappelle's Show" used to be. But the tone is entertaining, and the format fits. Read full review

Teresa Wiltz

The show, though, never quite jells. Read full review

David Hinckley

The phrase "all over the place" barely begins to cover it. Read full review
