Great News deserves at least one more season, despite disappointing ratings

Vulture

“It’s not necessarily a groundbreaking show — its comedy is steeped in the hyperspeed tradition previously established by shows like Arrested Development and (duh) 30 Rock,” says Jen Chaney. “It’s also not a mindforker like The Good Place or a reboot like Will & Grace and 80 percent of the shows currently being developed for television, nor is it a limited series stacked with Oscar-winning actresses or affiliated in any way with Ryan Murphy. But Great News is a consistently funny, occasionally topical, terrific comedy that had a sense of its own identity from the first second of its pilot and has never wavered from it.”
