    Hooked. No Kidding!

    While I admit after the first episode, I knew I liked it, but thought I could go either way depending on the next. I am now fully invested in this tremendous show. Jim Carrey doing TV again was the catalyst, obviously, but it has soared past any expectations I might've had. It is equally quirky, and shocking, and hilarious, and above all, supremely well-written. Never talks down or insults your intelligence. Why Frank Langella didn't become a superstar is beyond me. He is an absolutely stunning actor. I am glued to the screen when I watch "Kidding" every bit as much as I was to "Breaking Bad", but for obviously different reasons.

    I dont know if its good or bad but its something special

    I really cant tell if this show is good. Not yet at least, but it really got my attention. Very heavy show trying to touch some very heavy topics. Jim is really good and im afraid that he is trying to reveal some of his true emotions in this show. I can surely say one thing. You should give it a shot. I promise you that you wont get bored.

    Most underrated show of all time

    This is one of the most amazing shows I've ever seen. Jim carrey delivers his best performance, and one of the greatest performances ever. This show is hilarious, but also exceedingly dark, which only makes it better. 2 great seasons. The ending of this show is a masterpiece. But still, the fact that this show got canceled is a tragedy.

    Unique approach

    It is a good show, very different from current TV junk. It is unique and definitely will not appeal for average audience. It may not be perfect, but has potential to be outstanding, hopefully writers will not disappoint. I think Jim Carrey is a perfect fit for it.

    Wonderfully heartwarming

    A charming adult version of Mr Rogers mixed with any of Michael Condry's films and the incredibly talented Jim Carrey; he's so beloved to me! I absolutely love all the generosity involved throughout, it's so sweet. Kidding would be cool on drugs I'm excited for season 2!
