Average Joe propels its tightly plotted caper forward with an enjoyably manic, "anything that can go wrong will go wrong" energy.

Although the performances are terrific across the board, the centerpiece of the series is the portrayal of Joe by Mr. Cole. .... Its characters act the way many of us might, should we find ourselves in the extraordinary circumstances of "Average Joe." Which is highly unlikely. But highly amusing.

It’s an easily digestible genre offering that wouldn’t be completely out of place on an FX or Netflix, plus the ensemble is really solid, especially Malcolm Barrett and Cynthia Kaye McWilliams.

The show has a “Breaking Bad” circa 2008 vibe, a show where smart people make bad choice after bad choice. But don’t take that as a knock on “Average Joe,” which is better than average and does what it sets out to do quite well.

What makes “Average Joe” stand out is its lively and funny dialogue, delivered with sharp ease by its talented cast. But it’s the writing that ultimately diminishes these contributions into something more, well, average.

Nothing Average about this Domino effect show! I was truly not expecting much besides some laughs and not getting bored. And hell did it deliver that and so much more!This is really a domino effect roller-coaster from episode one to the end, one f"#$"%& up after the other leading to another f"#%$ up that they need to address and try to fix leading to another problem that they will ultimately fix.This kept me glued to the screen every **** acting is amazing, everyone is just perfect with their parts and the script is just brilliant. Deon Cole and Cynthia Kaye McWilliams steal the show. Malcolm Barrett is also brilliant, but shadowed by the **** only annoying act I suppose was given from Tammy Townsend, I don't know if it was scripted or not, but for me it was very annoying.Cant wait for season 2.
