    Like a lot of startups in their early days, Superstore launches as a buggy enterprise.

    The sense that everything you see, and every joke you hear, is being recycled--making this less a superstore than a consignment shop. The merchandise isn't terrible; some of it is even fairly nice. It's just that after so many hand-me-downs, you were hoping for something new.

    Not terrible, not without charm, not a bad cast (in fact, a pretty good cast).... As a consequence, not particularly funny or memorable either.

    Created by writer Justin Spitzer, Superstore has its funny moments as it alternately mocks People of Wal-Mart types while trying to protect the dignity of the store’s employees. It’s difficult for the show to have it both ways. Superstore is at its funniest when it’s also at its most ruthless and offensive, but those moments are few.

    It's a bit of a frustrating mixed bag, Superstore, on which I blow hot and cold from scene to scene. The cast is strong.... but it also feels unfocused and unformed.

    Spitzer doesn’t fully explore the show’s potential, but the important thing is that “Superstore” has potential.

Superstore is one of the most funniest shows on t.v. today. The in between scenes of what the customers are doing in the background are hilarious. This show deserves a much higher rating than 57. Every character works well together to form a perfect comedic relationship. Superstore is not to be missed.… Full Review »

I think they've done a good job with the jokes, and through three episodes it's held my attention. This has the potential to stick for NBC.… Full Review »
