Avenue 5's heart is in the right place. It had a mission. But, much like its starring vessel, it manages to screw the pooch on that one.

It takes several episodes before Avenue 5 finds its feet and for it to become clear what's actually happening to the ship and its passengers - and it's worth waiting for.

A lot of Avenue 5's issues do boil down to the growing pains of a high-concept comedy and how that hinders the rapid-fire joke machine one would expect from Iannucci.

Though the plot moves a bit slowly in the beginning, that pace allows [Armando] Iannucci to roll out plenty of other amusing characters.

It's a bland allegorical satire built on an obvious point that unfolds in outer space where days (or nights) never end, and the passengers are irritating, and the ship is girdled by stiffs and human excreta.

[S]ome of the performances are promising and, in the case of Hugh Laurie, Zach Woods, and Suzy Nakamura, instantly indelible. I'm in wait-and-see mode, with a side of optimism.

Be patient and you'll find that Avenue 5 develops into its own bizarre creation, a commentary with memorable characters on how disaster makes actors of us all.
