POLL: Did you enjoy comedy series Newark, Newark?

Three-part TV series Newark, Newark has attracted hundreds of reviews locally, with the verdict on its success very much in the balance.

The series has received high praise in the national press, though the Newark locals have been more difficult to please.

More than 100 comments were left on the Advertiser's Facebook account under a story reviewing the first episode.

The most liked comment on the Advertiser Facebook account about the show was left by Paul Phillip Johnson, who sat through all three episodes.

"In my opinion, I'm not convinced that Nathan Foad (the writer) actually likes the place he's based his sitcom on," said Paul.

"I say this because this three-parter feels more like he's poking fun at his former home, rather than creating a love letter to it."
