Mike McNeil is an unorthodox New York detective who's trying to juggle work with his complicated personal life, which includes his wife -- and a girlfriend on the side. McNeil also smokes, drinks and abuses prescription medications. The show comes off as a semi-satirical take of contemporary ABC drama "NYPD Blue."

Ann Hodges Houston Chronicle From smart hip script to slick comedy acting -- good job on The Job. Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly Shot on film with intentionally herky jerky camera work, "The Job" is surprisingly effective. Rated: C Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Linda Stasi New York Post "The Job," ABC's new sitcom produced, starring, written and overall done by Denis Leary, who may be the funniest man in town, is the funniest show since "I Love Lucy." Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Erik Leijon PopMatters More than anything, The Job is about those cops' efforts to deal with and sometimes avoid their difficult "job." To that end, it deploys a strong ensemble cast. Jan 8, 2020 Full Review James Endrst Hartford Courant [A] comedy full of ranting that you're going to hear a lot of raving about.
