Season 3 finds Forrest on trial for a murder. In a later episode, he is experiencing life as Helen Keller on the day that his attorney decides, bafflingly, to put him on the witness stand where he remains mute.
TV's most underrated comedy, and one of its most underrated shows, period, is a grand indictment of capitalism itself, a beast that you live to feed until the moment it eats you.
If Review ran forever, detailing a never-ending series of adventures, exploits, and horrors, I would watch it forever, laughing and wailing and wincing and then watching again, thanks largely to Daly's virtuoso performance.
Still smart and without mercy, 'Review' presents the age-old struggle of a work/life balance (or more accurately, the perils of not having one) as an excruciatingly brutal fable.
In showing us the sum of Forrest's travails, Review has given birth to something extraordinary: a bleak, serialized tragedy that inspires spasms of unrestrained laughter.
Andy Daly's Review is a brutal, relentless series, filled with misery, existential dread, death, soul-searching and pure awkwardness. Thankfully, it's also one of the funniest, sharpest shows on television.
