Thanks to clever writing and smart pacing, everyone from Work gets a chance to shine. [14 Aug 2015, p.56]
You know exactly what you’ll get from creator Barbara Adler within five minutes, and that’s not bad at all.
A funny enough comedy with a predictable premise that manages to surprise by often taking an unpredictable path.
[McG's] quirky approach mostly works. That’s in part because Reid is just vulnerable and stammering enough as Kevin, and his starry-eyed view of Audrey helps soften the cartoon-like aspects that permeate the show elsewhere, inasmuch as this is ultimately a Kevin-centric look at the world, with Audrey as the center of the universe.
On one hand, the microscopic nature of Kevin from Work is fresh and daring in a millennial-friendly sort of way as are Reid and Spara’s attractive visages and tangible chemistry. On the other hand, the webby approach and the caricature heavy supporting cast erode the show’s legitimacy.
It's a moving program when it's in rom-com mode, but the series is weak as a workplace story, with too many stock characters and lame jokes.
Yes, there are awful caricatures among the male characters too, but at this moment it’s the female ones who really grate.... It’s all supposed to be mindless fun, but the jokes are too unsophisticated and unoriginal to justify the damage.
