[Jason] Ritter is a likable, able comic actor who shines in big parts and little ones, though I am not quite sure that he has been perfectly cast here.
October 03, 2017
The show has a Touched By An Angel blended with Highway to Heaven aura, lightened by Ritter's gift for physical comedy (a trait he seems to have inherited from his talented dad, the late John Ritter).

What might have been a heartwarming story of reconciliation becomes a woozily constructed high-concept head-scratcher.
October 02, 2017
A huggable charmer with a big heart that can't decide whether to go deep or skim the surface.
October 03, 2017
Unfortunately, the show is lacking not just gonads but an original premise, a credible cast, a watchable screenplay or any discernible reason to exist.
October 02, 2017
Our Kevin here is played by Jason Ritter, scrappy and sincere, and strong enough to keep the whole thing afloat despite tonal inconsistencies that would sink other shows.
October 02, 2017
The series, created by Tara Butters and Michele Fazekas, succeeds because it avoids being sappy at every turn.
October 02, 2017
Kevin (Probably) Saves the World has a great deal of potential, largely due to the characters that inhabit that world.
October 03, 2017
Quibbles about the premise aside, Ritter makes and sells this show. He balances the pathos and the comedy. In lesser hands, this hour just would not be appealing.
October 03, 2017
Everybody keeps talking about how awful Kevin used to be... That's not what Jason Ritter is playing and I don't know if it's something he's capable of.... And if you can't buy that, you can't buy the grand redemption arc that the show is based upon.
