I'm just gonna resume my review here in the first paragraph, in case you don't wanna read it all. I'd guess Will Forte easily sold the pilot, which is actually very good, but then he just didn't know what to do with it as the first season went on. If you're into stupid comedies and you can make it to second season, it might be worth you're while.
This series had me in the first 3 minutes of the first episode, it was really funny up to the 3rd episode. First of, I don't know why it's called "Last man on Earth", since there are 3 male characters.
The main character is a stupid idiot but he's got some personality, you can laugh at his mistakes, but as the episodes go on, he also starts becoming an asshole, and his stupidity goes from funny to annoying. Suddenly the series starts looking like a sitcom, same format (without the audience laughs), all of the 6 characters are stupid, and the "end of the world" scenario gets basically forgotten.
Seems like it really sucks, so why am I giving it a "6"? I gave it a chance and turns out the second season is pretty good. It still feels like a sitcom, but the protagonist goes back to being likable, and the show starts to take itself a bit more seriously. Just a bit. Looks like the producers decided to view the critics about the show and "fix" it.
