The Jim Gaffigan Show

I really really really enjoy this show.

This show goes way beyond the stand up routine (per my headline).

I really appreciate all the character interactions and although the main cast is small, they are all an integral part of the show and create plenty of depth.

I have enjoyed Jim Gaffigan's stand-up for years, so maybe I am biased. But I have also enjoyed other comedians' stand up and their shows fell flat for me. This is not the case with this show.

All chemistry between characters is great.

I love how the show isn't on a laugh track (...that I can tell, I think I'm usually naturally laughing when there is supposed to be laughter).

This show isn't just a replay of all of Jim's humorous stand-up, it's real life and I hope this is a close portrayal to how your* life is (*if Jim is reading this) because it makes me happy.

Maybe the reviewer who gave it a one star is anti-Gaffigan or maybe he didn't drink his two alcoholic beverages suggested by comedy clubs to lighten the mood.

I'm so glad this show got signed on for a second season. You should start watching now before there are too many seasons to catch up on!

Author, Grammy Nominated for Best Comedy Albums, Stand-Up Comedian Jim Gaffigan is to comedy today what Carol Burnett was to comedy in the 70s; clean and funny. Refreshing! His deadpan sarcasm is done beautifully for those of us who use and appreciate it. The entire cast of this show plays their part effectively and humorously. I love Ashley Williams who plays his wife. Adam Goldberg as a a fellow friend and Michael Ian Black are also spot on. I first became familiar with Gaffigan when he did a very small part in the wonderful 2004 movie 13 Going On 30. This show has a running time of about 22 minutes on Wednesday evenings on TV Land which is perfect as it keeps the viewer wanting more!

Comedy with realism and wit! Jim makes living with his family and friends believable and wittily funny. A joy to be in his world for a few minutes each week. Well written story lines and the supporting cast performs well too. Good to see a comedy "set" with a family that does not use their children as props instead of real human beings with feelings. Jim has a self-deprecating humor that is witty and honest and the way he and his spouse depict real life situations is comical as well as refreshing. A different kind of comedy and well worth thirty minutes of your time once a week!! You will not be able to watch Jim's comedy without enjoying how honest his feelings about life,family and marriage really can be full of laughter and truth.

The Jim Gaffigan Show is hilarious.

I have not seen much of his stand up. My husband is a big fan of Jim Gaffigan's comic stand-up. After watching this show, I am going to watch his stand up.

The chemistry between Jim and Ashley is great. They play off each other very well. We have been watching since the series premiere. The characters are well played by each individual actor. The banter between Adam Goldberg and Jim Gaffigan is perfect.

It is a must see show.

I recommend this show to everyone. I laugh from beginning to the end.

Season one of this show was hilarious. So funny and the banter between the actors was amazing and quick witted. We couldn't wait for the second season. Now that it is almost over - we can't figure out what happened. The ideas for the show are still great, but the writing is horrible. We hardly laugh at it any more. Sometimes we even fast forward through short sections. And why do they have to explain the show afterward? That should be their first clue that it is bad. If you have to explain your comedy, it isn't funny. I don't know what happened to the writers, but they need to go back to the way it was. Watch the first season on demand - but don't waste your time with the second one.
