'Casual' Review


Over on Hulu, Jason Reitman is executive producing a new comedy, Casual, about adult siblings living together under one roof. (The sister also has a teen daughter.) That's a prescription for a pretty familiar sitcom, but Casual is often smarter and wiser than its premise might suggest. (Plus, the show ends up becoming an unexpected do-over for Reitman, who explored similar themes in his 2014 misfire, Men, Women & Children.) I reviewed Casual for The Wrap.
