The Hawk is “bottom-shelf” Will Ferrell from great comedy minds

Critics have widely panned the show as a major disappointment, particularly noting that it feels incredibly inert despite being created by Will Ferrell alongside his former SNL colleague Harper Steele and The Other Guys co-writer Chris Henchy. Many reviews point out that without Adam McKay in the mix, the classic Ferrell magic seems to have curdled, leaving the series entirely devoid of the absurdism and charm that defined hits like Step Brothers or Talladega Nights.
