Like most comedies, it takes a while for the characters to click, and by the end of the 10-episode run, the viewers become a part of that world, with all its inside jokes and quirks. Go to Full Review Glen Weldon NPR Mar 3
This is a very, very funny -- frequently hilarious -- series that prizes well-written, well-timed, well-delivered jokes, and that knows how to use its actors to serve them up in the best way possible. Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday Feb 24

3.5/4
"Fall and Rise" is a new standard for comedies. Its ups and downs are merely a different way of doing business. Go to Full Review Gene Demby Pop Culture Happy Hour (NPR Podcast) Mar 10
I like so much of the show. And it felt like a good hang but it didn't really stick to my ribs. Go to Full Review Dana Han-Klein We're Watching What?! Feb 27
This will fill the 30 Rock sized hole in your heart. Starting with episode 2 the show hits an incredible stride with esoteric and delightful humor, endearing cast chemistry, and a perfect pinch of chaos. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Melissa F @RT63320805 Mar 25 The clever, absurd, and comforting humor of 30 rock is upgraded for a 2026 landscape. Daniel Radcliffe keeps up as a perfectly ludicrous foil to Tracy Morgan’s antics in this impressive comedy of second chances. See more Dave H @RT89751731 Mar 25 Great show, good pace! It definitely grows on you in a very good way! See more Rob M @RT27388509 Mar 24 Wow, what a sad attempt at forced humor. I guess Harry Potter has hit bottom having to partner with his talentless Tracey Morgan coworker on this forgettable Martin reboot. Someone needs a better agent. Obviously the creators of this sitcom are friends or children of talented people and it fell short on this attempt. See more Kam H. @kamskam Mar 22 Not for me. I didn’t get it at all See more Brandon S. @crispycritic Mar 22 Pacing is way too fast. Not enough pauses for clever, comedic timing. Tracy Morgan is horrendous at acting. Bobby M is the only funny actor. Very disappointed. See more Andrea P @RT27993104 Mar 18 hit the mark after finishing 30 rock binge. just enough clever lines to keep it going.
