Review

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.

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!

Forrest MacNeil, the guy on TV who will review anything his viewers want, from the mundane to the life-changing. That's an awesome hook, but Andy Daly is a comic genius and runs like hell with it. The requests become progressively more impossible, so Forrest's life becomes self-destructive. Hell, it goes right down the tubes. Case in point: "What's it like to eat 30 pancakes?". Rating life experiences becomes ruinous for both him and pretty much everyone within his orbit (my god, his poor wife).

I honestly wasn't prepared for something so addicting. As soon as I finished the series run (22 episodes?!) I immediately wanted to start over. The replay value is astronomical, and for my money the pancakes episode is some of the best tragic comedy I've ever seen. You wouldn't think it'd be so fun to see this weirdo get absolutely wrecked, and just as clever as it is dark.

This show's amazing!

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!!!!!!!

I had no idea what this was going into it, I only found out about it while surfing the CC website and checking out clips on various shows. As I watched each video I began to notice I was laughing nonstop at each short scene. I thought if these two minute snidbits are this funny then the full half hour must be hilarious. Sure enough I watched the first episode and spend the rest of the night binge watching season 1 and the first episode of season 2. This show is laugh out loud funny, just dirty enough to be edgy, and the writing is some of the freshest and most clever on TV. I knew Andy Daly from EastBound and Down, although funny throughout that series, he only played a minor part in it. But in this show he shines like no other comedian I've seen in awhile and I couldn't see anyone else filling this role. Each episode takes you on a hilarious adventure with Forrest as he tries to navigate these insane and grueling reviews. His consistently oblivious nature puts him at odds with the people around him and sets in motion some of the funniest comedic situations on television. The reviews he has sent in each week range from joining the Mile High club to finding out what it's like to be a little person, but it's the way Forrest goes about surveying these reviews that really makes the show so remarkable. I give it ***** Stars!
