Forte and Olsen epitomize the term dynamic duo in this quick and quippy short format series. The sets and costumes look great (up to Jann's standards I hope) and the leading team's comedic strengths are really showcased here without it feeling like the whole show is setup and punchlines. I really like the 10 minute format and the writers did a great job finding a way to fit a compelling arch into that structure. I was, however, unable to finish the series and probably won't return unless the developers remove the restraints on screen mirroring and casting. I think it says something about the app creator's own concerns about the viability of a mobile-only media platform that they have to go so far out of their way to prevent people from watching the content how they choose.

It's Decent - It Has Laughs
genious-354139 April 2020
Not as funny as Last Man on Earth or the Mick. Certainly not as funny as It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. But Olsen is great and Will Forte is great and the dialogue is funny. And it's April 8th. We're all stuck at home because of Covidfest 2020 so REALLY... you got anything better to do?
Nothing amazing but new

It gets a 7 because it's a new and different type of comedy show. It doesn't give off that stale and bad comedy. It combines drama and comedy and works fondly well. Will and kaitlyn work beyond well together, it's got it's a laughs and keeps you engaged because you become curious to know what happens to them. It's an intriguing show it is not corny at all. It's interesting to see that they thought more about a storyline than bad jokes, which these are actually pretty good. I would say check it out!
Didn't Know I Needed a Spoof On FLIPPING Until Now!

With episodes 6-8 minutes long, I imagine this show is made to watch on your phone while waiting for the traffic light to change, so it's difficult to have much in the way of feelings towards these series one way or another, but brevity is the soul of wit and all of that.
Flipped begins slowly with nothing resembling a laugh in the first three episodes. Things pick up in the 4th with the narco guy wanting his house done. The next progression is doing his boss's house with Andy García playing a dilettante drug dealer with a dragon of a wife.
Diego is the heart of the comedy of this show, and that isn't something in abundance in Flipped.

What a brilliant (and fast) series!

You can binge-watch the the entire series within 75 minutes. Each episode is about 7 min long and therefore it never gets any boring. It cuts to the chase really fast and the leads, Olson and Forte, are quirky, funny, genuinely weird and help drive the story even better. Pace is great and the humor is rather smart. To be clear, this is not a laugh-out-loud series; the humor is very "funny or die" style. Story is cool and the characters develop nicely; this will get you invested pretty easy. Especially if you're a fan of Will Forte, you will love this. Let alone the great supporting cast which is pretty funny it self! If you're looking for something nice n easy to be entertained, that's your jam right here. 9/10

Warning: Spoilers
I got a free 90 day subscription to Quibi so I figured I'd check it out. I'm a HUGE fan of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and The Mick so when I saw Kaitlin Olson in Flipped I immediately had to watch it. Kaitlin plays Cricket, a wannabe home improvement expert who just got fired from Four Square. Will Forte is her husband Jann, who has also been fired as a kid's drama teacher. The couple sees an opportunity to submit a video for a contest where the winners get their own home renovation show. They buy a crappy house in the desert and find half a million dollars in the wall. They spend all the money renovating the house and film the whole process unaware that the money belongs to the Sinaloan cartel. I love it and my only complaint is I wish it was an actual show with full length episodes.
LOVE IT!! For people who can laugh at themselves and have sense of humor

If you liked Last Man and other similar comedies, you will enjoy this one a lot.
It is extremely funny. Smart script with hilarious dialog and played really well by many. It's only down-voted by those with no sense of humor.
The story is so bizarre, it is hilarious!!
Yes, I am not enjoying only 9-minute episodes and it IS stupid,but it's no reason to downvote a show, as some do.
10/10. Please do the 2nd season!!

This show are pretty entertaining, if you binge watch all of the ep ! Most of the people gives low rating cause of the Quibi platform..The duo cast are great, Will Forte is super hot actually, regards his weird hair on other shows. The story are fast paced, some actions and dialogue won't get you bored. You can finished the whole things in a few hours..Overall I hopes there's more seasons ! Worth a watch
Fun ride but where is the ending?
theotherblonde25 August 2020
It's a spoof of hgtv remodel shows with some seriously good twists complete with an obnoxious host couple that talks over each other and wears matching clothes like they are five . Then just like that , bam! It's over. I hope they finish up the story.i wanna see where this goes.
Suprised
tmartin-787216 September 2020
Decided to try Quibi and I'm glad I did. I thought the concept of the platform would be annoying but they managed to create episodes that flow together instead of what feels like shorts. I didn't expect a comedy of this quality. Maybe I'm starved for comedy in these times but I found this show hilarious. Forte and Olsen have great chemistry and the show is original enough to be engaging. Kudos!
I really, really liked it!
TeayaTeaya2 September 2020
I've picked the show because of Will Forte. I binge watched it simply because it was so much fun. I really liked the chemistry between the leading actors, their conversation contained so much niceness, respect, love towards eachother, it was delightful.
Hoping for more seasons!

Barry Season 3
Near-L29 January 2021
If you like Barry and is eagerly waiting for season 3, this show might scratch that itch a little. Although not as realistic or with same dangerous tone it definitely have some of the good traits Barry have, very funny crime villains and situations. Liked the show and do not mind the format, the format is only a problem if not all episodes are release at once or at least in chunks of 3 episodes per week. Otherwise i recommend waiting for a few episodes if not all to be released before starting.
