Seinfeld, a show about a stand-up comic and his friends, is one of the most successful sitcoms in television history. Will Mulaney on FOX be a big ratings success as well? Will it run for years and years? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Mulaney follows a rising stand-up comic John Mulaney (Mulaney) who’s trying to take his career to the next level. He’s both helped and hindered by his friends and mentors. The rest of the cast includes Martin Short, Nasim Pedrad, Seaton Smith, Zack Pearlman, and Elliott Gould.

What do you think? Do you like the Mulaney TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Nobody could act in season 1 of Seinfield. I bet this will get better around season 3.
Mulaney is awful. Inappropriate jokes about fat girls. Acting is atrocious. Cancel!
Not funny.bad acting.cancel this crap
The irony is that Mulaney is arguably a better stand-up than than Seinfeld was at his age, but his show isn’t even worthy of comparison other than the general theme. John Mulaney lacks Seinfeld’s on-screen charisma, basic acting abilities, and Larry David. When Seinfeld told a joke his inability to act was replaced by the genuine smile of a guy who wanted you to laugh and find the joke as funny as he did. Seinfeld earned the room to hone in on his acting by being a genuinely likable presence onscreen. He had a talented cast and crew and the… Read more »
I had high hopes for this show because John Mulaney is one of the best standup comics working today. He is legitimately one of the funniest comics I have heard in 10 years, but this sitcom is absolutely horrible as sad as it is to say. Hopefully Mulaney will go back to what he is great at.
The jokes are funny but the acting is terrible. Cancel.
Beyond the obvious Seinfeld comparisons, this shows characters are nothing but embarrassing sitcom cliches delivering cynically-written demographically-targetted lines.
I think Mulaney is pretty damn good and will only get better with time. Certainly the Seinfeld comparisons are valid, but isn’t there room on NETWORK tv for another Seinfeld, especially in an age where shows on FX, AMC and WGN (fer Chrissakes!) are so VERY far above ANYTHING being thrown against the wall by the networks? Mulaney should be given time to grow into it’s niche and should, at the VERY LEAST, be given a second season. It’s good now and it’s funny, and if given the proper time, I KNOW that John Mulaney and his brand of comedy… Read more »
Cancel. This Seinfeld wanna be is just awful. Makes me realize just how genius Seinfeld and its characters and actors really were.
Painful to watch . Feel bad for the actors. Simply awful
I remember watching this show a long time ago, back when it was called “Seinfeld.” It was much funnier then. :-/
Cancel this stupid show!! I agree with the last couple of comments!!
CANCEL!! My family and I were watching this and looking at each other like wth is this?? We haven’t seen such a terrible show in a long time! FOX blows my.mind at what they keep and cancel!!
We agree with Brian^^^^ to bring back SURVIVING JACK! We laughed so hard at that show!
Surviving Jack was very funny!
I can’t believe this is even a show!!!.Fox will cancel a great show SURVIVING JACK, but play this show? It’s the most ridiculous crap I’ve seen.
CANCEL this stupid show & BRING BACK SUEVIVING JACK!
Will need one or two more eps to decide if I want to continue. Really nothing new in here from what I saw, but I will say the characters need talk conversationally and not talk like they are in play talking to the back of the room as that is very annoying.
