Diane is a clone of Nicole Sullivan's mad tv sketches. I think that's why others reviews say it's like 90s comedy...
Diana showed us that she does have a heart and will do anything in her power to set things right for them. I'm also dead serious that this should replace The Mighty B on Nick rewind. Cause this show is an underrated classic. The Mighty B (pleas do not get offended by what I'm going to call it, it's true anyways) is a short-lived critical and commercial failure. Diana is everything Bessie should've been.
I expressed disdain at the show when it was announced, mainly for being based on a Twitter gimmick account (yes, really) and for having that samey adult animation style. I finally watched it, and it's surprisingly not bad.
I'm not from Chicago, so take my opinions here with a grain of salt.
Voice Acting - 2/2. You can't go wrong with Lauren Ash. I loved her as Scorpia in She-Ra, and she brings a lot of life to Diane.
Characters - 1/2. Diane is a hard-drinking, partying hedonist with a disheveled lifestyle. When her nephew comes to live with her, the show sets up an arc about learning to care for others. Pretty interesting.
Writing - 1/2. Again, you'll only really appreciate it if you're from Chicago yourself.
Animation - 1/2. Yet another show with the generic adult animation art style. Like with The Harper House, you could make this into a live action sitcom and nothing would change.
Music - 1/2. The rock soundtrack is great, but it's another victim of the lack of a theme song and a generic title card intro.

The CPA Twitter fees has been really funny for years. The show is decent and has a few good laughs, but is very specific for a Chicago audience and for people who grew up in pre2000's Chicago, when Chicago was full of blue collar SNL Super Fan types. A few nitpick details - Diane should be from the Southside or south suburbs.
If you're not familiar with the cultural references (and stereotypes), it may not be very funny. But if you get them, it's pretty damn funny and there are a LOT of them. Quite creative, really.
