Finally, a new comedy I can enjoy. Tim Robbins is great as usual, and Jack Black has managed to tone down his usually way too hysteric performances, and does very well too. Its funny and sometimes clever, and nowhere near as stiff as almost any comedy nowadays.The pace is good, and it has well managed timing.
Its well casted with a lot of familiar faces. I hope this gets to continue, it has potential to get even better. It will never be Big bang or Friends or anything like the huge 10 season successes, but it has potential to be almost great.
I recommend it. Enjoy yourselves.
