Judging from the barrage of 1-star reviews from people with suspiciously American sounding names, the show has gone down about as well as Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes.
But that's quite a fitting metaphor because this witty, comedy-of-errors type show has very British humour-feel with an American splash. I'm reminded of classics like Red Dwarf and The Office in terms of some of the characters and plot.
I had no idea the British producer is also the creator of one of the seminal characters of British comedy - the great Alan Partridge (!) and this has vibes of that too. I was not expecting much when I started watching but turned out to love it. Great acting, film level production, and love some of the dark comedy elements.
