‘Incoming’ Review: Netflix’s Freshman Year Raunch Comedy Scores Laughs but Proves Edgeless


From 'It's Always Sunny' writers Dave and John Chernin, Netflix's 'Incoming' follows four freshmen throwing a party that will change their lives.

Even when someone bends their morals — as Danah does when he sets up security cameras to target his dream girl and lock her in a room with him — they face some swift, nut-punch comeuppance and, not long after, unqualified forgiveness. The Chernin brothers prove more adventurous with various side personalities, including Bobby Cannavale as a friendly sadsack chemistry teacher that takes his students up on binge drinking at the party. The result mostly resembles a sitcom pilot, with somewhat plain characters now established to plug into more absurd and complex situations, with the promise of looping back to status quo by the end of each episode.
