James Poniewozik · Time 70.00/100.00
It’s often funny, but it’s not infallible. A lot of the first episode plays like a sketch-show bit that drags on too long, tees up giant stereotypes and goes for easy “Wouldn’t it be funny if Jesus did ____” gags.
Mike Hale · The New York Times 70.00/100.00
As you’d expect from Mr. McGruder (working with the Canadian writer and director Mike Clattenburg of “Trailer Park Boys”), it’s pretty funny if you give it some time.
Robert Lloyd · Los Angeles Times 80.00/100.00
The series, which is confident from the start, its world fully formed and well-performed, isn't a retelling.
