God's Favorite Idiot

I think people are being way too critical. It's a fun comedy, and I really recommend giving it a try. It's also really nice to see a show with actors in a variety of shapes, sizes, and nationalities.

I really hated this through the first four episodes. And I considered quitting it altogether, however I began to warm up to the storyline and its characters. Leslie Bibb's Satan is a riot and I loved the depiction of God as a grandmotherly nurse. Furthermore, its message that all faiths are equally right is refreshing considering how polarized the actual world feels. For that I give this a strong 6.

I love Melissa McCarthy and I appreciate her husband, Ben Falcone. BTW - he can sing! AND don't forget our favorite Gilmore Girls Frenchman, Yanic Truesdale (really a French Canadian).

This is a simple comedy with some slapstick added.

Do yourself a favor and don't take it at all seriously . All you have to do is observe McCarthy on the motorized 'thingy' and you can tell that this is not high art.

It's fun. It's silly. Personally, it did my soul good, after a crap week, I got to laugh and not care what anyone thought. YAY!!

With all the negative and preachy stuff, this is just light-hearted and funny! They cast click and the timing is great. I saw a few negative reviews and just don't get it. Nothing else is just pure fun and the ensemble show's just work for me. Great, lighthearted fun!

An ordinary man who works in an office is blessed by gods light in his back garden.

This is the basic premise of the show, from here we follow the lead who is a simple man of simple needs ( not really an idiot ) and his coworkers in the his office job abound a religious journey.

Its a fairly basic sitcom that draws certain paralells with the office but not in fun and humour.

The jokes are a bit thin and its more of an expedited humour affair.

The only person I have recognised so far is Melissa Mcarthey who is not the titular lead but certainly takes on front and centre.

Overall its an interesting concept that lacks great humour and uses crazy events to find its fun.

There are however some nice sweet undertones to the show which I'm sure many will enjoy.

6/10.
