Blockbuster (2022)
6/10
Watchable
3 November 2022
It's got a likeable cast with some great defined comedy types, though already there's a cliche will they/won't they which I kinda wish writers could move on from. I'm not bored watching it, and I never feel like they are trying too hard or the episode plots aren't holding my interest. It's just not funny. Laugh out loud or chuckle worthy. Nothing. But it's warm and positive and makes you feel cozy like a Superstore or Parks and Rec, but not laugh out loud funny like them. This is simply easy to watch if you wanna put something on in the background while playing Candy Crush on your phone, but this show doesn't come out of the gate as a winner like Brooklyn 99 or The Good Place did. Maybe the writing staff will step it up with the jokes and the wit if it gets another season, plenty of these comedies have had extremely weak season ones and went on to greatness (The Office and Parks and Rec)

Also the irony of Netflix making this show is appealing enough to make it a 6/10 instead of a perfectly mediocre 5/10.
