Aren't series about comedians supposed to be...funny? This show is like the Tom Hank's film Punchline: A narrative about comedians with very few actual laughs. The sad part is that this show has several REAL LIFE comedians who should be able to make you laugh. Unfortunately, they don't.
Melissa Leo, as always, is good. And the show has a keen eye on how life was during the 1970s (one noticeable flaw is that all of the vehicle are of 1970s vintage instead of the range from mid-1950s until the early 1970s that would have been on the road at the time) although many of social and political attitudes are that of its 21st century filming period.
Not a bad drama. Just not a funny series about comedians.
