Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Swallow some water and you'll stop gagging. Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Roger Catlin Hartford Courant Seth Green is the biggest name in the largely unfunny variation of "Men Behaving Badly" or "Two and a Half Men," in which the network tries desperately to lure young men from their Xbox with characters as crude and off-putting as its writers.
