Andy Daly stars as Forrest MacNeil in Review, the show within a show about reviewing life (an adaptation of Australian series Review with Myles Barlow). The first two seasons were amazing. The conceit of the show is not just a way to invent sketches, it’s much smarter and more cringeworthy than that.
There’s continuity to the episodes that stack up with the cumulative life events Forrest has to review, in effect destroying his own life. His dedication to reviewing life knows no bounds, and the suggestions on the show are taken literally even if it ends in his own divorce (as seen early on in season one).
This final season trailer shows how far Forrest has come and that he is willing to endure more.
Review’s final season premieres March 16 on Comedy Central
TV has always been a part of Michael’s life, but since the influx of streaming shows now he can’t stop (someone send help). He also dabbles in films and video games, and has a mean board game collection.
Michael has a Bachelor of Arts in Media Studies from Victoria University, Wellington, New Zealand. He has previously written about video games for publications including Game Console, Salient, and ButtonMasher.
