Review of Detroiters

Detroiters (2017–2018)
10/10
Detroiters--a comedic tone poem to a great city with a sense of humor
18 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I love this show and hope it gets picked up for another season. They are able to skewer Detroit while still obviously loving it. I'm sure all cities have low budget ad agencies to make the kind of ads that Sam and Tim make. Here in Detroit it was always Robinson's Furniture, Mel Farr the Superstar Ford Dealer, and Mr. Belvedere Home Improvement. Sam and Tim make ads for similar business people. Some love them, some hate them, but the two two-bit ad guys are oblivious to haters.

They live next to each other and (spoiler) Tim is married to Sam's sister, who works on the line at Chrysler.

The humor is funny and you don't have to live in Detroit to get it. The cameos and guest stars just add another level of delight. Mort Crim's news bits often tie the whole show together.
