1/10
Unoriginal, uninspired, unfunny.
26 July 2020
Despite decent performances from Will Sasso and Christina Vidal, United We Fall is a cliché-ridden, boring, and painfully unfunny sitcom. The plots are tired, the jokes range from bad to borderline uncomfortable, and the fact that a comedic legend like Jane Curtin can't manage to get one chuckle out of me is just sad. Guillermo Díaz isn't given much to do either. Then again, it shouldn't surprise me that another American network has piss-poor Latinx representation.

Of the big 4 networks, ABC, NBC, and CBS have been neck & neck in the sitcom game (Fox really only has The Simpsons sadly). But with the conclusion of Modern Family and the pointless cancellations of Schooled and Single Parents, ABC really only has Black-ish and American Housewife to carry it. ABC comedies need a massive boost of energy. And trust me, United We Fall isn't the answer.

Just watch Black-ish and American Housewife. If not, you'll have a better time watching some Modern Family re-runs on USA.

EDIT: I watched 5 minutes of a newer episode and the show seemingly got worse. Not even Will Sasso and Christina Vidal are good at this point. It's officially gets a 1 star rating. I never thought I'd ever say this, but hope this show gets cancelled, just to spare the country from more unfunny comedy.
