Rutherford Falls

Watched the first three freebies, was on the fence. Decided to go with the subscription just to finish the season. Super-glad we did-it really picks up, gains the kind of momentum that's left us eager for a second season so we can see how things work out for characters we've come to care about. If they don't renew, even after Michael Greyeyes'.win at the Canadian Screen Awards? I can't imagine keeping up with the subscription-Rutherford Falls is our sole reason for subscribing,

It's not bad.

First off Bobbi is cool love him and Terry what a sexy goofy but smoldering man I very much like his character.

It's kind of an odd show but it grows on you it's funny an good I think everyone should like it Reagan is very relatable she's a good main character and as always love the cute Ed helms all in all totally give it a watch and enjoy.

Like many reviewers I watched because I adore Ed Helms and his particular blend of comedy but for lots of reasons this show fails to engage with enough people, enough of the time to be funny. Season 1 was overly political and so it was hard to find the comedy in it. Season 2 was funnier but Helms just pushed himself aside to shine a spotlight on the rest of the cast and unfortunately for him, most of the cast are bad actors with little ability so without his charisma this one could never get far. Needed more star power and famous faces. I understand what he was trying to do and no doubt it was all well intentioned but for lots of reasons such as plot and acting, this didn't land.

Let's start by saying I think Ed Helms is super talented and I appriciate the effort, Helms, Shur and the writers wanting to do something different.

Sadly like a lot of reviews on here something is missing as in effort to almost be super diverse in every category they have forgotten to cast better actors and add better writers to the room.

Michael Greyeyes, Ed Helms and the very underused Beth Stelling are all fantastic but the rest of the cast are exceptionally hit and miss and as a result so are the plots and the level of acting in varying episodes. Sometimes it is hilarious, satirical and heartwarming and sometimes it's a bit like a school play.

Season 2 is much better than season 1 with a range of much funnier scenes but the awful romance between Nathan and Dedria is so desperately cringeworthy and contrived for a show that is largely trying to be at the forefront of something, the whole set up seems so bad. Normally Ed has so much chrisma he can pull off a romance and you root for the two characters but these two have NO chemistry and the whole story seems forced to give Nathan a plot for the season.it's all very odd and disjointed. The show desperately needs to clean house for season 3 shifting out some current cast for new characters that can support its growth.

It can be developed but they need to add to the cast and bring more established names in to help it progress. Truth be told I should have given it a 6 but I love Ed Helms so much and don't want to bash a show that is trying to do a good thing and clearly has a good heart but if you are not a Native American or an Ed Helms fan you may struggle to stay with it,

Out of the handful of new sitcoms that have launched, THIS one seems to have kept my interest the most.

It started kinda iffy but I am currently watching the season finale and I'm hooked.

Definitely a series that benefits from the option of bingeing.

If I had to wait a whole week for an episode I might have forgotten about it. Now I can't WAIT for the next season!👍🏽👍🏽 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
