Kidding (2018)
Very disappointing.
I watched the first two episodes and I can't be bothered to watch the rest.
My first impressions were: Unoriginal, Uninteresting, Boring.
My biggest problem were the stereotypical and annoying characters.
You have:
1) Your wise soft-spoken old man (Jeff's dad).
2) The child who talks and acts like an adult (Jeff's son, Will)
3) And finally the protagonist himself, Jeff. He has an innocent and naive attitude. That is not realistic or charming for a 40 year old (I'm guessing) man. He also thinks like a child. He seems sadder about his divorce rather than the tragic loss of his other son.
The acting performances are good. There is some humor here and there, but it's pretty basic. The drama fails, because, like I said, I'm not interested in the irritating characters. Also, there are a few sexually explicit scenes which feel completely out of place.
If you want a comedy-drama show that is currently on-air, watch Baskets.
