Livingston excels as the point man, making Sam Loudermilk both his own worst enemy and a guy who would be damned interesting to be around. This is one of the ongoing TV season’s better new comedies.

Yes, the first episode of Loudermilk, on AT&T's Audience Network, is funny if overly intent on leaning hard on the "abuse counselor is abusive to everyone" schtick. But it's also well-written and engaging, which should get you to the second episode.

There’s a tender heart that beats beneath Loudermilk’s misanthropy, especially when it delves into his work moderating group-therapy meetings and his attempts to help a young addict (Anja Savcic) get her act together.

At a time when substance abuse of all sorts is roiling the nation, Loudermik, forgive the pun, is a sobering comedy, in every sense.

While the notion of a lovable curmudgeon is hardly new, Loudermilk stands out for several reasons, first among them, the show’s beautifully realized scripts, followed closely behind by fascinating performances by Livingston, Savcic and others.

Though it feels contrived at times, or willfully outrageous--this is Peter Farrelly of the Farrelly Brothers, remember--it can also be authentically charming. Livingston and Sasso have especially good chemistry, and Savcic fits in well with them.

Often, it sidelines that more interesting show in favor of a curmudgeonly soapbox for cultural quibbles. Most of Loudermilk exists in the area between these too--it may not be an inventive comedy, but when it plays to its strengths, there’s enough here to like.

Very interesting TV show, it has its ups and downs but very refreshing and interesting character construction. To an extent, I found myself sympathizing with Sam Loudermilk, he is just seeing the world for the messed up thing it is because he agreed to be sober, but not just sober from the booze, sober from the lies, small and big, sober from everything that gives us comfort in making our bubble real. In a way, he is living the daily hangover of life and that's refreshing.

I liked this show more than I thought. I'm definetly not a film or TV show critic, in fact I usually don't watch TV because characters seem, "written" if that makes sense. Well this show had believable characters but also was interesting and kept me entertained. It was the most TV I've watched in years finishing the 3 seasons available.
