Nathan Rabin AV Club I have officially come around on Franken and Davis. They got off to a rough start but they really found their voice late in the third season. Rated: B+ Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Will Harris Bullz-Eye.com There's some material you can't believe was considered controversial, and there's other stuff that's so offensive that NBC would never allow it on the air.
