Across the board, the cast is tremendous at building out the stage for this show to highlight Anthony. Against all odds, this has worked—twice now—because the creatives here understands that if they aren’t living every second on the brink of jeopardizing their own experiment, then maybe they are going too easy on themselves.

In every respect, it’s a more ambitious, amusing, and ultimately moving practical-joke portrait of goodness.

When it comes to crafting comedy, Eisenberg knows exactly what he is doing and, as a result, the show is belly-laugh funny from start to finish.

Even without its central gimmick, “Company Retreat” would still make a decent sitcom; there are funny characters speaking funny lines; there’s some good slapstick. And unlike some some prank shows, its intentions are good, its attitude humane.

More than familiar sitcom tropes and reality show shenanigans, Company Retreat highlights the compassion and kindness of one man. Despite only having known these people for less than a week, Anthony weaves himself effortlessly into the Rockin' Grandma's family.

There’s just not much to discover at this “Company Retreat.”

Company Retreat just lands as a sweeter, milder retread of its predecessor, with no new innovations or insights of its own.
