What Are the Critics Saying about Happyish?
Happyish has an official critics rating of 32% and an average audience score of 82%. The series hit a chord with the viewers, with many lamenting the series’ discontinuance.
IndieWire’s Ben Travers says, “For a half-hour comedy, Happyish doesn’t leave the audience rolling in the aisles. It reads as either exhausting or invigorating, depending on your state of mind when viewing it.”
Mary McNamara from Los Angeles Times writes, “The show is very much about Thom and his ‘struggles,’ which are far too often presented in a series of high-decibel, gratuitously profane diatribes about the habits of others without benefit of anything remotely resembling personal perspective.”
