Review of Reboot

Reboot (2022)
6/10
Hollywood navel gazing
15 April 2023
Hannah Korman (Rachel Bloom) is pitching a TV show to Hulu executives. She wants to reboot an early 2000 sitcom called Step Right Up. Reed Sterling (Keegan-Michael Key), Clay Barber (Johnny Knoxville), Zack Jackson (Calum Worthy), and Bree Marie Jensen (Judy Greer) are the original cast returning to do the reboot. Elaine Kim (Krista Marie Yu) is a young TV executive. Gordon (Paul Reiser) is Hannah's father who ran the original show.

It's good, but something keeps holding me back. I may be a little tired of Hollywood navel gazing. Also, I'm not a big fan of Hannah. I do grow to like her more with Gordon's arrival. He really helps elevate the material with better comedy. This gets cancelled after only one season of eight episodes. It's just finding its footing.
