Meet The Richardsons review

Until today's comics grow out of the puerile urge to swear for laughs, there can never be another truly funny sitcom. Foul language kills good comedy. It ditches the need for wit or clever characters, and replaces them with an easy spatter of obscenity. Meet The Richardsons (Dave) is a prime example.

Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 9th April 2021

Meet The Richardsons review

If this is modern TV comedy, bring on the repeats.

Meet The Richardsons review

Sofa, so good for this comedy couple.
