Review

This guy doesn't get comedy. Amy schumer is a great comedian, but her show is trying to shove "funny" down your throat so hard that it loses credibility. The same goes for the kroll show. Review is a fresh concept and Andy pulls off laughs without trying so hard you shudder from the douche chills. I felt like it had just enough painful awkwardness without going overboard and relying on it to carry the show.I honestly thought the show was gonna be dumb when i saw the previews but I laughed non stop through the whole first episode. If it was any other host I think the show would be a flop but Andy is a perfect fit and plays the part flawlessly IMO. I give it a MILLION STARS!!!!!!!

Forrest MacNeil is a reviewer. However, he doesn't review things like movies, books or food, he reviews life. Every week viewers send in life experiences for Forrest to review and he then experiences them and reviews them. His actions in having these experiences will have an impact on Forrest's personal life.

A very original and funny show. The experiences Forrest is forced to undergo and review are often extreme, e.g. Divorce, killing someone, leading a cult, being buried alive, leading to some hilarious situations. There's also a fair amount of commentary on society, making the show quite insightful and topical.

Just wow. He goes where I want to go but I can't because of SOCIETY.

I don't know how I didn't know about this show when it actually aired and why it's not still on. The premise is such a brilliant idea and something I could definitely see being made into a realty show. The difference is the reality show would scrutinize the viewer suggestions for what to review and they'd pick the easy ones. I've seen Andrew Daly in the background of other movies/shows and I never thought one way or the other about him but he is spot on in this. Forrest MacNeil (Daly) is a married father of one son who has a review show on tv. He doesn't review books or food or movies, he reviews everyday life and gets his suggestions from viewers. It can be anything from eating 15 pancakes, having a best friend, to stealing, doing drugs, and making a sex tape. No matter the request he must do whatever the suggestion says and that's where the hilarity comes in.

I was a bit skeptical about the concept behind this show. What saves it from banality is just how creative and edgy each episode is. The viewer has NO idea what is going to happen next. There is no formula and the tension is often ratcheded up to excruciating levels. There are tons of laughs here and the back stories are woven in expertly. So many comedies are played very hammy with lots of stereotypes. This is a very refreshing new form of comedy where the backdrop is more realistic with only some of the characters being over the top. If you're a fan of Louie, The Office or Curb Your Enthusiasm you will likely really love this show. It's fresh and Andy Daly plays the role of the hapless reporter to perfection. I hope that we see more hilarious comedies coming. Great stuff!
