I will miss, of course, the series, its colorful characters, but all good things must end in time)", — SilverTIger_7.

Though with Barry it was always like that - any absurdity looked organic) Well, and as always, they found something to surprise. The scene of the shootout, shot overall and "without splices", reviewed 10 times", — Redy.

"We caught a truly great series, bravo to Bill Hader and Alec Berg. To twist a slacker comedy so much that it becomes a drama, you have to be able to do that", — canitakethis.

"The most beautiful series. Despite the perfect picture, very vital. About constant failures and failures on the way to the goal. And it seems like it's already there, but no, again 2 steps back. About growing up and winning, through losses, periods of stagnation, the fragile ego of all sorts of m*daks like Gordon", — podsolncem.
