The Critic

i'm in it

The film segment parodies are the best part of the show. The rest of it is just a bit meh. Funny, on par with other animated comedies for adults, but nothing special.

Missed the mark quite a bit but hilarious at times which leaves it with a "watchable" type score.

Episodes are non-stop occasionally funny gag reels of tv/movie parodies loosely centered around downtrodden, often shallow yet elitest NY movie critic. If that sounds like your cup of tea, sip away.

It stinks, it stinks, it stinks!

Great and very funny, but sadly overlooked television series satirizing the film industry, but I think like most shows from the era, I think a lot of the jokes and references are kind of dated and wouldn't be understood by younger people.

The humor's a little uneven but it's got a lot of good parody and lampooning. It doesn't stink.

I half-watched every episode of this despite it not being very good. The main problem is that Jay as a character is not very sympathetic and the world itself is not very inviting. Certainly, there's some quality writing here, but it's in the service of something I could never get on board with. I'm wasting my life...
