Summary

A legendary Las Vegas stand-up comedian whose residency is being scaled back is reluctantly paired with an entitled, recently canceled young comedy writer. The two clash across generations and sensibilities as they work to refresh the veteran's material, slowly developing a prickly mentorship that reshapes both of their careers.

Released in 2021, Hacks is a comedy and drama television series. Its comedy subtype is Dramedy.

A second review pool sits behind it as well: 203 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 3,069 2020s television series, not against the whole corpus. 258 IMDb reviewers are calibrated for this title, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 272 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track.
