Lovely work by Rhea Seehorn and Jim Gaffigan (in a dual performance!) makes Linoleum's eventual turn towards over-explained sci-fi all the more disappointing. roryhasopinions' review:

feels like it’s drawing on a lot of influences and, to its credit, never feels like it’s replicating them. With a suburban family dealing with the physical and emotional fallout of a spacecraft crash-landing in their backyard, while also dipping into the fantastical, there’s hints of. With the dual performances from Jim Gaffigan as an emasculated soon-to-be divorcee and the successful military neighbor who cucks his job, there’s hints of Americanized Dostoyevsky.

Cameron and Erin used to host an educational science program for kids, but times move on, and his boss has opted for a more confident, assuring type of instructional programming—hosted by the sports car-driving, strong-mustached astronaut Kent Armstrong . Gaffigan’s chemistry with himself is stellar, imbuing two archetypal characters with pathos and charm, but even though Seehorn plays a mere 50% of her co-star’s parts, she deserves praise for her put-upon but deeply empathetic Erin.
