American Auto

The reviews that are giving 1s and 2s are clearly from angry people that are unable to watch anything that even slightly differs from their own view points. This isn't an amazing show by any means and it is definitely weaker than the office and superstore, but it still provides entertainment and shows potential. I am currently 4 episodes in and find it enjoyable and for the most part has a very good cast. The show is obvious satire so anybody getting up in arms about it's content should really look deeper within as to why a random NBC sitcom fills them with such disdain after watching a pilot episode. I'd give the show between a 6-7 at this point but lean towards 7.

2 episodes in. Quick, snappy lines, great diversity of characters and behaviour. Laughed out loud at the way Woke and political correctness is parodied. Obviously plenty of you don't get that, based on the other reviews. It's a comedy. A great comedy.

I usually don't like "off-the-wall" humor. To be quite honest I don't like most of the comedies on broadcast TV. This one made me laugh and I think it shows promise for the future.

I guess I'm in the minority after glancing at a few reviews which all seem to be negative but I thought it was pretty funny.

I'm excited to see Ana Gasteyer back on TV because I think she's funny as hell and underrated. I was pleasantly surprised to see Michael Benjamin who was one of my favorite parts of 30 Rock when he played Tracy's bastard son, Donald even though they were the same age.

How can all these so called reviewers give one or two stars after only two episodes ??

American Auto begins as a car manufacturer welcomes a new CEO who comes from a drug company and doesn't like cars. So far, the series is a mix of incompetent and semi-competent people going from disaster to disaster created by the CEO (Anna Gasteyer, who beautifully captures the brash, unjustified self-confidence of an American executive). The series is from the folks behind "Superstore" and it's kind of like the flip side; instead of workers talking about orders from "corporate," we see the disaster that goes on in "corporate."

The cast is good, the jokes are often hilarious, and the critics were pretty favorable, so I was shocked after watching a few episodes to come here and discover the users of imdb (and rotten tomatoes, which I also checked out) just hate this show.

Which I'm very sad about, because if the reviews here are representative of the general attitude of the public then this show is doomed. And it's seriously one of the funniest and most likable sitcoms out now.
