Like most Chuck Lorre sitcoms, Leanne needs to find its way for awhile, and there are moments during the first handful of episodes that feel as cliched and “sitcommy” as it gets. But the cast starts clicking pretty quickly, especially Morgan and Johnston, and that goes a long way to upping number of genuine laughs each episode has.
I may not be the target audience for “Leanne,” but I found much to like in it, and suspect many Netflix subscribers will as well. To the extent that I chafed at some of its worldview, it was at the frequent comments on diet, weight and appearance, many of them directed at Morgan herself.
Every fourth or fifth joke has the air of having been hammered out on an anvil, and a few might have been better left in the smithery. Yet I like this show, in no small part but not entirely because I like Morgan
Morgan and Johnston bounce off each other with sarcastic banter and sisterly ribbing, a bit jarring at first, but their quirks quickly grow on you. Like any good sitcom, Leanne combines goofiness and sincerity to give a platform to w

The whole thing is fine but thin. Morgan is sharper in her standup than she is here, which may be another casualty of the character’s emotional state. .... But the humor is generally good-natured (it comes late in the season, but there’s a joke about an armadillo that really got me), and the episodes are short and move swiftly, allowing them to slip by even when the plotting can’t keep up.
Morgan and Johnston are in almost every scene and have comedy chops that can overcome even the most defiantly second- and third-tier writing and reward your viewing investment with glimmers of merriment. It starts to take on a rosy hue. Are you entertained, or just glad that the first 22 minutes are safely past and need never be seen again? Who’s to say? Whatever is happening, it’s … sort of nice.
Like McEntire’s series, Leanne takes a known Southern star (in this case, comedian Leanne Morgan) and sticks her into a story about betrayal, divorce, and starting over. Only where Reba felt like a breath of fresh comedic air, Leanne is mostly just stale.

Love it !! The show is charming and nostalgic. Picks up after episode two. I missed this type of show

The 20th Century background laugh tracks sums up the attempt at humor. Leanne is AWESOME at stand up comedy and has been good in film, but this show is sub par.
