Superstore

Maybe the worst offender w/r/t the hot sitcom trend of regurgitating "progressive" Twitter talking points into dialogue and storylines, but also originated a lovely novelty in the rigorous themed cutaways. Most of the cast does very well. Seasons 3-4 are sometimes hysterically funny. Easily more laughs than the US OFFICE, which has somehow mutated into such an outsized cultural phenomenon as to make one want to #BurnItDown #TimesUp #ACAB #WomeninSTEM #POCinSTEM #STEMsUp #NRBQ4L

I'll miss this show. Unusually good ending.

Watchable if I have nothing better available, but not compelling. Later it became increasingly ridiculous and relied too much on unbelievable or embarrassing behavior for jokes.

a really fun and simple show

The series starts slow, but the evolving personalities of the characters begin to transcend the simple set-up of a Walmart-style store to find some true heart. It's sweet, satirical at times, timely (especially the final season which paints an interesting portrait of retail workers during COVID), and above all, consistently very funny.

Sweet comedy, delightfully oddball in places.

Started off being quite similar to the Office, then grew into its own characters with some surprising background characters taking center stage. Then it changed the dynamics a bit and lost quite a bit of steam in seasons 3-4, but I still kept watching since I was familiar with the characters at that point. Then it got cancelled abruptly so they at least tied up all the loose ends in 2 episodes. Jonah and Mateo were the worst. Fav eps: Halloweens, Labor Relations.

Superstore is a quirky comedy that's funny and smart, with a good range of characters and a likable cast. The bits of random customers misbehaving in the store is hilarious (and apparently based on incidents witnessed in real life). Though am I the only one who doesn't like Cheyenne & Mateo? though?

For my money, easily the most watchable new network comedy of the fall '05/spring '06 season. Basically likable cast of characters, relatable but amusing situations, brisk pacing, solid jokes. That shouldn't be such a difficult thing to ask for, but it turns out it totally is!
