The critics that dismiss this show either
1. Dont enjoy humor.
2. Dont watch more than one episode to at least give it a chance, or
3. Like to get off on writing snarky, negative reviews.
Probably all of the above. Either way - this show is fantastic, and I would recommend it to anyone. It's the only thing on NBC worth watching if you want something besides cop/hospital/drama crap.

Ever since "Undateable" went live for both the East & West Coast tapings, it has become a genuinely laugh out loud sitcom, which is to be expected since the show consists of four seasoned stand-up comics who do their best work improvising. In addition, whatever mess ups may occur during the live shows only adds to the hilarity of it all.
The fact that the show is interactive with its fans through Periscope, Instagram, and Twitter both during the tapings and after has created a true connection between the fans and the cast and crew of the show, lending itself to a growing loyal fanbase who have dubbed themselves the JSquad. Through this group of superfans, the show consistently trends weekly on Twitter only aiding to the further growth and love of the show.
Ala "SNL" style, the show also hosts special guests like "Scandal's" Scott Foley, "Scrubs" Zach Braff and Sarah Chalke, and musical guests like Weezer, Ed Sheeran, Meghan Trainor, and the Backstreet Boys, the latter three also having acting stints within the show.
By breaking the "Fourth Wall" with meta references to current events happening the very day of taping, to the casts lives outside of the show, to the casts reactions to the live studio audience's reactions, the show manages to stay fresh and zeitgeist.
Aside from the laughs, the heart of show lies in the relationships between the seven main characters from the bromance between odd couple Danny and Justin, to the romantic relationships between Justin and Candace and Burski and Leslie. Some of the best moments of the show entail the cast embracing each other in a group hug.
When it comes right down to it, the success of the show is based ultimately on love: The love between friends, the love between romantic partners, and the love between the fans and cast and crew of the show. And to wrap it all up with a bow on top, is a genuine need to just laugh out loud at all the silliness and off the rails comedy that makes "Undateable" one of the funniest, most innovative sitcoms to grace television right now.

Mildly enjoyable, with some occasional great one--liners. The characters grow on you, partly because they are odd, strange and even lovable. I continue to enjoy it, even though I really don't like many sitcoms anymore.

I really like Chris D'elia's humor and his stand up. Unfortunately the writing is what disappoints me in this show. I love the characters and the actors and actresses that play them.
However, it is the jokes that fall flat. The humor is forced. There is weird awkward dancing and singing that isn't awkward-funny, it is just awkward.
The character Justin is just a super sweet nice guy. There is no substance to him. There is always some lesson in each show, too, which dumbs the show down. There should not be a morality lesson in a comedy show if it isn't Disney Channel.
