Love Jon Lovitz, but I never got into this series.
Short lived and naturally dated, but at the time of airing, this Simpson adjacent sitcom held its own. Lovitz’ voice is iconic.
Underrated 90’s cartoons with hilarious voice acting from Jon Lovitz. The Critic perfected the cutaway gag long before Family Guy aired.
Can be a bit boring, but Jon Lovitz is good.
Smart, self-effacing look at 90's culture and life from the creators of The Simpsons. Strikes a great balance between cynicism and heart.
Jokes can be iffy here and there, as it’s mostly pop-culture parodies, but I feel it would’ve found itself had it gotten another season
The guy amuses me like his character.
It deserves so much more love.
Ok as a youth
A bad critic
