The absurdity of an omniscient sophisticate still in short pants carries plenty of comedic potential.

The writers need to differentiate how Allen Gregory relates to Jeremy from how he relates to Julie. If the show had Allen Gregory treat Jeremy and Julie differently, there'd be more opportunity for a wider variety of jokes, including some that don't involve yelling.

The animation of this generation was some of the best of all time and Allen Gregory is no exception. by far the greatest family animation fox has ever produced. The Aesthetic of the locations and characters are phenomenal and so relatable. I think a little piece of Allen Gregory exists within all of us here on Metacritic.

Obviously, he is supposed to be insufferable, but there's not enough else in the show to distract you from just how much you want to shove the tiny egomaniac into his Louis Vuitton lunch box.

Maybe as an animated sketch on "Saturday Night Live," Allen Gregory would leave viewers eager for more. But in half-hour form, it's too much of the same.

It could be a problem Allen Gregory solves later on, either by softening its main character (and his dad) or by pushing supporting characters more to the forefront, but the version on display in the pilot is one I have no interest in ever watching again.

For what it's worth, Hill's performance as Allen Gregory's titular character is the only noteworthy aspect of an otherwise shoddy show.

Allen Gregory is not funny--not even a little bit--and it is not remotely entertaining.

It's a good movie. The Simpsons comes to mind when I see this comedy cartoon. It's probably a work that will give you that kind of feeling, just like the fun happenings in the Simpsons movie

Parece un asco solo con esa animación, y con cosas inapropiadas que causaron su cancelación temprana
