British Comedy Guide, 16th January 2017The Comedian's Guide to Survival review
James Buckley plays real comedian James Mullinger in a British film blending fact and fiction, with comics appearing as themselves. Trouble is, it's not funny.
Leslie Felperin, The Guardian, 27th October 2016Movie review - The Comedian's Guide to Survival (2016)
You may just see comedy from a different perspective once you're done.
Tony Black, Flickering Myth, 26th October 2016Film review: The Comedian's Guide To Survival
Comedies about stand-up comedy are difficult to pull off. How do you capture the highs and lows of performing live on film? How do you capture the buzz of the good gig, the despair of the bad gig? How do you capture a world that is simultaneously niche and mainstream? The Comedian's Guide to Survival comes pretty close.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 26th October 2016The Comedian's Guide to Survival review
Films about comedians are rarely funny, but The Comedian's Guide To Success breaks that curse by taking the angst and insider jokes of Louis CK's Louie and playing it broader, less arthouse. It's flawed, but with the movie taking its own advice about persistence, director and writer Mark Murphy more than gets away with it.

To be frank, it makes Sex Lives Of The Potato Men look like The Apartment.
Jimi Famurewa, Empire, 24th October 2016Zapped review: hard to find any evidence it's a comedy
This is an amiable show, but its bunch of magical losers will have you wanting to leave their parallel universe and head home.
Tim Dowling, The Guardian, 14th October 2016Zapped episode 1 review
Zapped wouldn't be the first sitcom that failed to convince everyone on its first outing. I warmed to it more on a second watch so with time spent in Munty getting to know these characters, we could well learn to enjoy them. Love them like we love Lister or Rincewind though? My soothsayer rune says not likely.
