The New York TimesAlessandra StanleyOct 1, 2013
Season 1 Review: The show is not a snarky sendup of loveless nerds or callous swingers; it’s a fairly gentle comedy about burnouts who call themselves a band of brothers. Read full review

USA TodayRobert BiancoSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: What you're left with is a series that, while less repellent than the even-more-misogynistic Dads, is equally dull. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Of all the dumb shows you can watch on a Monday, here’s one more. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandSep 27, 2013
Season 1 Review: There's nothing terribly memorable about it other than the appeal of the cast members. And that was earned from previous films and shows. Read full review

Washington PostHank StueverSep 13, 2013
Season 1 Review: The cast is certainly talented enough to overcome We Are Men's shortcomings, if the writing improves. Read full review

NewsdayVerne GaySep 27, 2013
Season 1 Review: It's the tired guys will be guys trope dusted off for one of TV's pre-eminent comic actors, Tony Shalhoub, who can't even break through the smog of mediocrity that's enveloped him here. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyMelissa MaerzSep 26, 2013
Season 1 Review: It's the male Sex and the City, with more shirtless scenes (courtesy of Jerry O'Connell) and way less wit. Read full review

Pittsburgh Post-GazetteRob OwenSep 28, 2013
Season 1 Review: The guys behave badly in mostly cliched and predictable ways. Read full review

New York PostReed TuckerOct 3, 2013
Season 1 Review: Shame We Are Men is so off-putting, because the cast is generally likeable, especially Penn. Read full review

The A.V. ClubErik AdamsSep 29, 2013
Season 1 Review: Like the dullest of origin stories, it all seems pretty perfunctory, a series that longs to be a shaggy hangout show shoehorned into a rickety single-camera framework that may as well be called How I Left Your Mother. Read full review

Under The RadarLily MoayeriSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: For a comedy, We Are Men is, in a word, sad. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesMary McNamaraSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: [A] show [that] is far better cast than it is conceived. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Tepid stuff. Read full review

VarietyBrian LowrySep 27, 2013
Season 1 Review: It’s hard to escape a feeling that We Are Men is really just TNT’s short-lived “Men of a Certain Age” without the ambition, and maybe with a lobotomy. Read full review

Uncle BarkyEd BarkSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: Its first half-hour comes and goes without providing any further reason to hang out with these guys. Read full review

TV Guide MagazineMatt RoushSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: These Men of no certain age and character aren't so much bad influences as terribly unfunny company. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Run! Run fast and far from We Are Men. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterTim GoodmanSep 24, 2013
Season 1 Review: Watching We Are Men made me feel stupid almost immediately and then bitter that I'd wasted the time. But maybe that's because I wouldn't want to be anywhere near the four male representatives of this series, nor hear the actors portraying them say any more "jokes." Read full review

The Huffington PostMaureen RyanSep 19, 2013
Season 1 Review: The existence of this comedy, which pretends to be brash but mainly succeeds in being more offensive, unfunny and predictable than Dads, told me that we have angered the gods. Read full review
