People of Earth

Man this was an absolute gem discovery! I love it. It's about a very special support group of alien abductees. Compare this with "The Middle" (which I stopped watching this season because it's NOT funny anymore) and you'll get it. This series is genuinely funny and yet it has some profound meanings hidden behind the humor. The cast is awesome, we get to see Wyatt Cenac at his best but the other actors, such as Ana Gasteyer, are really tailored for their characters and very funny. I wish comedy would go this way rather than the boring and totally not funny other specimens. What can I say more? Well, give it a try! The episodes only last 20 minutes and I'm sure many of you will love it.

I love this show!!! Hope TBS changes it's mind about cancelling or some other network picks the show up.

People of Earth is an inspired original series full of endearing sweet, petty and neurotic characters, both terrestrial and extra-terrestrial, all brought to life by a deft comedic cast. Featured members are Wyatt Cenac (former Daily Show correspondent/noted stand-up), Ana Gasteyer (SNL/Lady Dynamite) and Brian Huskey (in the supporting cast of every TV comedy currently in production).

As if this weren't enough, the show is also supplemented by the greatest quantity of taxidermy deer television has ever seen. (That being said, if you are one of the unfortunate few who suffer from chronic Bambiphobia, People of Earth should definitely be avoided.)

Assuming that the episodes that follow are as funny and well told as the first, I hope to be watching People of Earth for years to come.

This goofy show about a support group for alien abductees isn't the funniest of this year's sitcom crop (that would be The Good Place, or perhaps Speechless, IMO), but I like it better than some shows I consider funnier. It's quite funny, and the characters are very human and likable (even the aliens are very human - go figure).

Wyatt Cenac is perfect as a journalist who can't quite believe in his own abduction. His part is that of the normal guy surrounded by weirdos, but the nice thing is, he manages to be the sane one without also being the boring one.

Overall this show is just very likable, with well drawn characters and a mysterious story arc. I highly recommend taking a look.

Just finished my second run through. This show would have been much more successful if it'd had reached UK viewers. Absolutely hilarious, totally out of the box comedy. Fresh and original. I'm gutted there won't ever be a season 3.
