It’s tempting to subject Comedy Central’s “Review’’ to a review, but that’s edging hazardously close to some treacherously meta-terrain.

“Review’’ — one of the most aggressively innovative comedies on TV — follows Andy Daly as Forrest MacNeil, intrepid reviewer not of restaurants or movies or Comedy Central shows, but of “life itself.’’ In the beginning, this meant reviewing experiences ranging from “Making a Sex Tape’’ (4 stars) to “Being a Racist’’ (half a star), “Eating 30 Pancakes’’ (5 stars), and “Hunting’’ (3½).

But over the course of two seasons, the show has started to turn against itself — or, more specifically, against MacNeil. “Audience suggestions’’ for MacNeil’s next assignments took a dark turn, and season two found him having a go at “Blackmail’’ (1½), “Leading a Cult’’ (2), getting “Buried Alive’’ (½), and “Giving Six Stars’’ (1), “Happiness’’ (3), and “Being Hunted’’ (6).

With each assignment, a bit more of MacNeil’s ugly humanity poked through his critical shell; and, as with any quest for life’s essential truths, it leaves him in shambles. It’s hysterical! (And to a slightly lesser degree, deeply depressing.)

Thursday at 10 p.m., “Review’’ reaches the halfway point in its abbreviated third and final season, as MacNeil takes on reviews of “Co-Host,’’ an “Ass-Slap,’’ “Helen Keller,’’ and “Forgiveness.’’ And next week, MacNeil files his “Last Review.’’ What form this sign-off will ultimately take is anybody’s guess, but it’s likely that Andy Daly will find a rewarding afterlife once Forrest finds his true place among the stars, rather than behind them.
