What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople love the show's humor and the cast, especially Domhnall Gleeson's endearing performance as Ned. While the story itself gets some criticism for being a bit thin and the pacing is often called slow, the jokes and the ensemble's chemistry are strong enough to keep most viewers watching. It's seen as a solid spiritual successor with great energy, even if the central premise of reviving the paper doesn't quite land for some.
