I Love That for You: Season 1

"The first episode, while strong, suffers a bit from the sheer amount of groundwork the show has to lay down..."

"(Bayer) nails Joanna’s blend of arrogance and abashment with an ace sketch comic’s facility."

"To judge from the first two episodes, the cancer subplot may well be the weakest (and hopefully, most disposable) aspect of the show."

"The show warms up enough in the third episode that we can envision it becoming an amiable workplace comedy..."

"As a comedian, Bayer is a whole-face actress, and she is selling a universe of emotion to the camera in every scene..."

"It plays like an old-fashioned and not particularly inspired multi-camera sitcom. The only (thing) missing is the laugh track..."

"Nothing about this show feels real on its own terms, because it’s never clear what those terms even are."

"I Love That For You is an outstanding new comedy that embraces kindness without ever feeling cloying."

"(It) puts more focus on the "character with a secret" trope than the actual characters, most of whom are loosely-drawn sitcom archetypes."

"The series struggles, often, to settle on a tone to unite its many different modes."
