Overview

A hilarious workplace comedy about a unique family of employees at a super-sized mega store.

Critical Reception

What critics are saying

Score 65 /100

Critical reception for Superstore is notably mixed, balancing praise for its heart against critiques of its formulaic approach. Many early reviews noted that the show struggled to distinguish itself from established workplace comedies like The Office, often feeling tonally jumbled or derivative in its initial outing. Critics frequently pointed to thin writing and one-note characterizations as early hurdles the series had to overcome.

However, the show grew into a respected series for many viewers over its six-season run. Later assessments highlighted its ability to reflect the realities of the modern retail workforce, earning praise as an "uproariously funny" and soulful sitcom. While it initially faced skepticism regarding its originality, it successfully carved out a niche as a bingeable series with a talented cast that ultimately found its own rhythm.

“Superstore's talented cast and obvious potential are slightly overshadowed by a tonally jumbled presentation and thin, formulaic writing.”

“It is a classic sitcom that takes place in a giant Cloud 9 supermarket chain branch.”

“Not only is it uproariously funny and incredibly bingeable, it also is one of the most important shows on television.”

“Superstore is like the bargain bin at Walmart: mostly old stuff with a few pleasant surprises.”
