	Media	Author	Review
		Chase Hutchinson Collider	"[3rd Season Review]: a show that remains as humorous as it is illuminating"
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"[3rd Season Review]: All episodes are like nothing else on TV (...) The best comedies often blend what's universally funny with what’s distinct to their creator"
		Johnny Loftus Decider	"[3rd Season Review]: Dave is at its funniest"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"[3rd Season Review]: a damn good time that still preserves the series' trademark curiosity and mental acuity"
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"[2nd Season Review]: [It] levels up with new episodes that experiment with tone and story but never skimp on (sometimes filthy) laughs (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		James Poniewozik The New York Times	"[2nd Season Review]: It does a good job convincing the viewer (...) that his heart is in the right place. But it’s also getting better at asking whether that’s enough."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"[2nd Season Review]: The show still doesn’t have a clue what to do with this character, even though Ko is a completely admirable piece of the ensemble whenever she’s allowed to participate."
		Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly	"[2nd Season Review]: It's a very good season, with enough idiosyncrasy to triumph over some growing pains"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"[2nd Season Review]: A perceptive critique on privilege disguised in dick jokes"
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"Lil Dicky is, at least, a presence who makes the minutes tick by; he can’t sell the material of the show, but one imagines a version of this series with different preoccupations, and it could work"
		Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"The execution is so tonally nuanced and ridiculous that you can easily look past confusion why Lil Dicky would have never performed before"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"[It is] 'smarter than you might expect'. The problem is that both Lil Dicky and Dave lean so heavily into the puerile, with only hit-and-miss comic results, that I'm not going to blame anybody unable to get as far as the fifth episode"
		Kayla Cobb Decider	"One of the funniest new shows of the season (...) Dave, both the person and the series, is entertaining as hell"
		Liam Mathews TV Guide	"The show is completely obsessed with its star's junk (...) 'Dave's 'Curb'-derived plotting sometimes leads to funny moments (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"Much of what makes 'Dave' worth watching is Dave himself (...) As the first season progresses, 'Dave' expands its vision and finds fresh depth"
