The Carmichael Show is inarguably funny, but it also takes a big chance by going political with much of its content... It's a bold line to walk, especially for a traditional sitcom, but could be the key that keeps people watching.

Carmichael is fearless in his material (the writing on the show is shared with co-creator Nicholas Stoller and others) and loves to cast a skeptical eye on conventional wisdom.

The show also has a clear comic voice, and wants to be about more than just familiar family hijinks.
August 26, 2015
This is one crazy-paced show, and one smartly crafted comedy.

What's most striking about The Carmichael Show is its topicality.
August 26, 2015
This is a comedy that should be noticed and nurtured.
August 25, 2015
Carmichael manages to take hackneyed situations and turn them into something unexpected and fresh.

For all there is to like about Carmichael, that added bit of substance, at least out of the box, feels elusive.
