Created by Steven Levitan (Just Shoot Me!, Modern Family) and produced (as well as starring) Keegan-Michael Keys, Reboot is a tv show about a tv show, this time a rebooted fictional sitcom for Hulu as the old cast comes back together many years later. Fairly funny lighthearted entertainment, I wouldn't say the series breaks the mold in any degree, but does well for what it is, providing some commentary on the television sitcom format and creating some fun relationships between the many characters. There are however many characters, without any really taking a 'lead' role of sorts, and as they spread out the backstories across its only 8 episode first season we don't particularly get much depth to any of their personalities. Most of the actors seems to basically play some version of themselves, and I thought they could have done more with the writers room and executives behind the scenes, which were my favourite parts. If you're a fan of any of these actors its a good show to flip on for a quick escape, and I'll likely check out season 2 if it ever rolls around. Pretty good, but not amazing.
