As wonderful as Brockmire was over its first three seasons — hilariously vulgar yet also remarkably moving, featuring a career-best performance from Hank Azaria in the title role — this could be viewed as terrible timing for Season Four to premiere. But among the amazing accomplishments of these last eight episodes is how they wind up feeling oddly comforting for this strange and scary moment in which we all find ourselves.

Season 4 finds the ideal line between evoking both the debauchery of his past and squaring one man’s outsized legend with his more understanding current form.
Apr 5, 2017
While not every moment works, Brockmire the TV series offers a world worth visiting, and characters worth rooting for, even when they stumble.
Apr 3, 2017
Over the course of the eight episodes, Brockmire moves through a trio of arcs, delivering underdog sports hijinks, the Jules-Brockmire romance and Brockmire's sad and probably doomed search for redemption. That's all propped up with enough low-brow jokes, raunchy baseball references and disreputable hijinks that the show never wallows.
Apr 4, 2017
The plot is consistent--completely ridiculous from the first of the eight episodes to the last--but credibility isn’t anyone’s concern here.
Apr 3, 2017
Yes, this story’s kind of been told before, in various places, and in various forms over various decades--but with not nearly as many vulgar words called into service here.

Season 1 was fantastic but each subsequent season gets more woke than the previous and the writing in seasons 2 and 3 could carry that however season 4 the writing does not. The humor is non existent I can't believe season 4 is even the same series as season 1. Disappointed ting to say the least.
