The show is a perfect balance of comedy and heart, and the performances are superior on every level. Micah Fowler, though: wow.
The briskly paced humor is delightfully irreverent, taking aim at PC posturing and entitlements of all kinds.
After a ridiculous opening bit--in which Maya recklessly drives the entire family to a restaurant whose 50 percent off coupon will expire in three minutes--both Driver and the show settle into a solid and for the most part amusing groove.
You won't feel like you're doing public service when you watch this show. It's very funny. Very entertaining. And it has a big heart.
The sheer exuberance of Speechless and the unsentimental way it approaches its premise ultimately makes the ABC family comedy likable, funny and even touching.
It's not until JJ, who can't speak but who has plenty to say, seizes control, that Speechless finds its own funny voice.
Speechless has its funny moments, but they are interspersed with So. Much. Yelling.
