out of 12   1. Reviewed by: Matt Roush     While things
invariably and hilariously go wrong, Party Down’s appeal comes
from the interplay of these endearingly delusional wannabes—now
including Megan Mullally, replacing the irreplaceable Jane Lynch
as a perky single-mom new recruit.   2. 75     The comedy never
quite lifts into giddiness, but there are lots of solid,
unexpected laughs. And isn't that cause for celebration? [26 Apr
2010, p.40]   3. 100   4. It's at once a simple, R-rated office
comedy about a bunch of people who would have nothing to do with
each other if they didn't work together, and a pretty wicked
satire of the quest for fame at all costs.   5. Party Down,
about a group of aspiring Hollywood types working as caterers,
returns for a second season of stale jokes.   6. Reviewed
