Former "Saturday Night Live" cast member Fred Armisen and rock 'n' roll guitarist Carrie Brownstein first cracked up audiences as the internet sketch-comedy duo ThunderAnt. That led to this absurdist series set in Portland, Ore., that gently pokes fun at the laid-back Pacific Northwest city and the many eccentric characters that call it home. Among the many recurring guest stars on the series are Ed Begley Jr., Jeff Goldblum, Natasha Lyonne, Kumail Nanjiani and Kyle MacLachlan, who plays Portlandia's mayor.

No one involved seems to want Portlandia to be anything other than Portlandia at this point, and given how consistently good the show's been over the years that's probably the right call to make. Go to Full Review Chris Cabin Slant Magazine 01/18/2016
2.5/4
Given the show's flippant depiction of youth, the plots involving middle-aged characters feel considerably more resonant and sincere. Go to Full Review Christopher Campbell Film School Rejects 02/08/2016
Talk about keeping it weird. Go to Full Review Christine N. Ziemba Paste Magazine 01/22/2016

The season opener... illustrates how the show continues to evolve from the loose collection of sometimes completely rando sketches in its early years. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
