Following the comedy of Andrew Dice Clay, a well known comedian that tells his early life challenges and struggles. The first season begins with Dice moves to Las Vegas with his family.
Clay's disbelief at, and arguments with, the world and society at large suggest a man who is indeed attempting to grow with the times, but is also failing regularly.
Strengthen or ditch most of the supporting cast (and go Louie-style with a rotating ensemble) and Dice could become something really special. As is, it's still an interesting chapter in a return of a once-superstar that most of us never saw coming.
The six episodes don't feature enough laughs to rank it among the essential comedies, even if the writing in specifics is pretty solid. A handful of jokes land every episode. Few miss. The tone is consistently light.
