Crashing

Very good show, but it is a slow burn. A little bit of a grower, actually, but half-way through episode two it starts to come together. I like how, situationally, things move on. There are recurring themes and people, but it is very natural.

It's great, actually. Check it out.

An excellent show! Pete Holmes succeeds to make a funny show, while having lots of cameos from famous people in the stand-up industry. The plot is great, and the relationship between Pete and his wife are interesting, and evolving each episode. It is really nice to watch the progress of Pete, trying to evolve his career as a comedian. Also, I really like the contrast between the naivete of Pete and the sarcasm of the stand-up world. A really great show. Recommended!

I didn't like Pete Holmes right away, his good boy persona annoyed me at first but over time really grew on me, which is exactly what he does to the other characters on the show. While he is a comedian and the show is often funny, it also often focuses on Pete's insecurity and loneliness which is very relatable. This show has a genuine sweetness at it's core that is seldom seen on TV today. I found this series to be refreshing and entertaining and was disappointed to hear it was not picked up for another season. The show also give a unique behind the scenes look at how comics come up through the NY comedy scene and features lots of great cameos.

What was once a modestly entertaining show for two seasons, has become that and more in its third season.

Watching comics fail (in this quasi-reality tv format) goes back at least as far as Gary Shandling Show, so I suppose it's a bit refreshing to watch things turn around and go Pete's way for a change.

(All that, plus Madeline Wise is a treat to watch!)

I love this show so far- i think it helps that i've listened to pete's podcast for a long time, so it feels more like watching a friend's new show. but nevertheless, i laughed out loud multiple times and felt genuinely warm-hearted afterward. Artie lang is a great actor and nice gruff touch to the show.
