Whilst I am a fan of Melissa McCarthy, her husband has only ever presented her with middle of the road scripts in the movie world, forgettable but watchable stuff at best.
With God's Favourite Idiot he's actually delivered a good comedy series with interesting characters, not least his own centre stage good guy. McCarthy gets to be her best shouty self but also has proper acting opportunities at times.
I'm an atheist and the religious stuff is well done without being preachy. The whole thing is a very solid series that I wanted to watch all the way through soon as I could. Not hilarious, but light, frothy and fun throughout.
