Marc Maron might not be a household name to casual comedy fans, but among his peers he's considered one of the best in the business. His podcast, "WTF With Marc Maron" -- on which he conducts in-depth interviews with celebrities and fellow comics such as Conan O'Brien, Louis CK, Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain, Judd Apatow and Ben Stiller -- premiered in 2009 and has grown to average close to 3 million downloads a month. In "Maron," the funny man stars as a fictional version of himself (think "Curb Your Enthusiasm"), a cat-loving podcaster who, when he's not welcoming a passel of guest stars to entertain his online audience, struggles to maintain relationships apart from his work. Also starring are Judd Hirsch as Marc's father, Nora Zehetner as his girlfriend, Andy Kindler as his loyal friend, and Josh Brener as his assistant.

Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Maron is a series largely set in a state of aftermath, which gives it an almost sweet quality. May 12, 2014 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Magazine/Vulture As sitcoms about talented, self-defeating assholes go, though, Maron is pretty good, though it has yet to plumb the sublime depths of self-loathing showcased on the likes of Louie, Girls, and Veep. May 9, 2014 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Maron may not have the depth and adventurousness of Louie or the crude energy of Jim Jefferies's Legit, but it's consistently well written (or improvised) and smartly cast. May 7, 2014 Full Review Jessica Johnson Time Out Chicago Maron just seems to be retreading old ground. Jul 2, 2018 Full Review John Vilanova Paste Magazine Maron seems to be finding new awkward scenarios to squirm his way into and out of, new ways to keep his well-trodden material fresh, and new people to piss off. Rated: 7.8/10 May 9, 2014 Full Review Daniel Kohn Under the Radar Maron is at its greatest when the comedian plays into the abrasiveness that lands him in trouble with others. Rated: 8/10 May 8, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews
