Hulu The first reviews are in for Not Suitable for Work , and they’re decidedly mixed. Here’s a synopsis of the show, which just premiered on Hulu on Tuesday (June 2) with its first three episodes. From comedy hitmaker Mindy Kaling , Not Suitable for Work centers on five work-obsessed 20-somethings striving for professional success and, if they have time, personal happiness in Manhattan’s most glamorous neighborhood, Murray Hill. The series stars Ella Hunt , Avantika , Will Angus , Jack Martin , Nicholas Duvernay , Jay Ellis . Victor Garber , Greg Germann , Judy Gold , Ego Nwodim , Harry Richardson , Constance Wu , Laura Bell Bundy , May Hong , Bhavesh Patel , Emilia Suárez and Michael Benjamin Washington are recurring guest stars. Critics are weighing in with their thoughts following the series premiere on the streamer. Season 1 of the show currently has a 56% Rotten score on Rotten Tomatoes. The Guardian gave it 2 out of 5, writing: “ Kaling ’s scripts try hard but rarely shine, let alone dazzle as the Friends ’ dialogue almost unfailingly did.” THR writes: “Its ensemble is broadly appealing, stuffed with fresh faces you might sorta recognize but who haven’t broken out big just yet. Its vibe is reliably funny, lightly sweet and generally chill. In short, it’s a nice hang.” The LA Times calls it “an amiable, sweet-tempered romantic ensemble comedy with a heftier than usual emphasis on professional ambition.” RogerEbert.com writes: “It offers too many cliches to result in anything other than mediocrity.” Australia’s The Age says: “Swapping out the campus for a Manhattan apartment complex home to fresh graduates entering adulthood, Not Suitable For Work smartly doesn’t overplay its Gen Z reference… But this is a classic work-and-dating sitcom at its core.” TheWrap says: “At its best it’s an entertaining world of whimsy; at its worst, it’s silly, shallow and overly tidy.” TV Guide gives at a 5.8 out of 10, saying: “It feels like in order to stand out, Not Suitable for Work is fighting against what people love about hangout shows: the actual hanging out.” Slant gave it a 1.5 out of 4, saying: “The series isn’t funny, endearing, or memorable enough to recommend around the water cooler.” Find out what shows just got renewed on Hulu.
