The Vince Staples Show is a dark, hilarious, intriguingly frank, and kinda-sorta-autobiographical story. .... There’s a decent chance The Vince Staples Show will be a one-and-done project for the artist, which would be a shame.

While the set-ups are slight, the execution is delicious. .... Staples himself is an endlessly compelling presence, with a near-permanent furrowed brow, a baritone drawl and a lightness of touch in his delivery that means he never overexerts himself to land a punchline. The dialogue is sparse but pointed.

Some episodes are also more effective than others, particularly the first two. .... Regardless, none of this results in The Vince Staples Show losing any of its entertainment factor. There is never a dull moment on-screen, and the series succeeds in being completely unpredictable, making it difficult to look away.

While this series has some memorable characters, fun guest stars and gut-busting lines of dialogue, it lacks the ingenuity and grit needed to hold a present-day television audience’s attention until the end. When it’s all said and done, Staples has a lot of great ideas, but they feel mostly unfinished.
