    IFC's new 10-episode, late-night original comedy Z Rock is effortlessly, genuinely hilarious.

    The absurdity of watching the band engage in an escalating feud with a rival trio of kid performers is genuinely chuckleworthy, and the series' rough edges seem well suited to its latenight IFC berth.

    Their TV show, which might make the band more famous than its music, is lightweight, sometimes flat and sometimes embarrassing, with none of the deadpan brilliance of "Flight of the Conchords" or the sophisticated sitcomedy of the late “The Chris Isaak Show.”

    Some amusing bits, but for every one of those, there are 10 misfires.

    Very interesting concept for a TV show, a rock band playing kid's parties during the day and playing the rock club at night. Some of the humor is hysterical but at times some of the humor wasn't too funny. Thought all of the special guests made the episodes more entertaining i.e. Gilbert Godfried, Dave Navarro, John Popper.… Expand

    This show is so god damn bad, it's unbelievable. who the hell writes their scripts? or maybe it's just the terrible acting that makes it sound like a talentless high school kid wrote the show. it's not funny, it's not clever. how did this get on TV and why isn't it canceled yet? i rather watch everybody loves Raymond.… Expand
