In the small town of Flatch, Ohio, a documentary crew follows slacker cousins, Kelly (Holmes) and Shrub Mallet (Sam Straley). Father Joe Binghoffer (Seann William Scott) is the town priest. Girlfriend Cheryl Peterson (Aya Cash) followed him to the small town before getting dumped. She's now running the local newspaper. It's the life of these people and other quirky locals. The second season brings in new character Barb Flatch (Jaime Pressly).
It's a network mockumentary sitcom adapted from a British show. Never seen it. A lot of this depends on whether one likes Holmes. I get her humor and that helps. Sam Straley is the loveable idiot. The rest are good solid comedic actors. The texts on small town life can be condescending at times. It can feel like it's trying to teach the audience. Mostly, it's pretty good. I like these characters.
