policy134 David Cross finally starts to grow on me. He's created a desperate character that appears to be what we all aspire not to be at first, but then suddenly, we realise - gee, we are him, most of the time anyway. We all like to think that we are morally superior to everybody else sometimes. For example, when we hear about somebody who did something terrible, we are pretty quick to condemn that person and without getting all the facts.By the way, this is not a civics lesson on morals that I am writing here, but it's to put David's Cross character in perspective. Here is a man with no real life experience. He comes off as the most ignorant person you have ever met and still, there is a part of us all that are just like him. Haven't we all tried to impress somebody about something we really know next to little about?Anyway, this is a comment about a comedy show and it is hilarious at times. Especially Will Arnett, who is by now pretty famous for his politically incorrect characters. He's done them on both 30 Rock and Parks & Recreation. The British characters are also extremely well written and I have met several people from England, who were a lot like them.The plots, however, are pretty unbelievable and you just have to take them for what they are. Situations that drive the comedy. What makes this serial superior is the character stuff and to a lesser degree, the archetypes. You won't laugh for a full 20 minutes, but you will get a few and at the same time you will experience some dynamite acting. This has been a positive review for once.

ffbadd I enjoyed it. Im not saying its a masterpiece but it was interesting and it produced laughs. The story may seem far-fetched at times but thats something I think TV shows nowadays seem to avoid. Its nice to see something a little different for once. Not every show starts out great either. The first season of Parks and Recreation wasn't anything special but look at it now. A few characters seem a little one dimensional but if the series continues to grow that can easily be rectified. My only problem with the show maybe would be the gullibility of a couple of the characters. Specifically Todd and the cafe owner, Todd at first seems to accept anything dave has to say. Which seems ridiculous to me but I guess thats what makes his character interesting aside from his compulsive need to lie when he doesn't have the right solution. I probably rambled a little but its late, bottom line its a worth a shot and it won't bore you.

team_liam There are some funny moments in this show but overall it's a bit too ridiculous to be classed as anything better than average. I watched it as a big fan of Arrested Development and the Inbetweeners so I wanted to see how Cross, Arnett and Harrison were in the show. One reviewer said that the problem is none of the characters are particularly likable and you don't particularly want anyone to succeed, especially Todd. Though there is some truth to that and the characters are a bit one dimensional there is glimmers of comedy.The problem is that it's far too unrealistic at every turn. For example, Todd is unbelievably stupid to the point of it making the humour feel a bit too low brow. He doesn't understand exchange rates, he can't pronounce "snooker", he thinks the houses of Parliament is a block of flats and he accepts a briefcase of £30 notes with Helen Mirren on instead of the Queen. Even a fish out of water would not be this dumb. His neighbour is the most stereotypical chav possible, a single mother of four who wets the baby's head by taking it straight on a night out, hours after it's birth.This is not intelligent comedy but it is a comedy nonetheless and probability states that in 6 episodes a cast like that will make you laugh enough to make it watchable. Basically if you think the pilot shows any promise then watch the rest as it's not exactly a waste of time but leave your brain at the door.

mkohus This show is David Cross. It's a little of everything that you know him for in his past works such as Arrested Development and Scary Movie and so forth. If you like David Cross, you will laugh your hoo hoo off at this one. At first, I was skeptical about a show that was called Todd Margeret as I tend to judge books by their covers, and so was my room mate, but as soon as we watched the first episode we were hooked. I laughed so hard that I could barely see through the tears. The first six episodes are over now and I hope that this show runs for several seasons. So, grab a box of tissues, sit back and enjoy some sick and twisted comedy by David Cross and Will Arnet. Oh yeah, and don't forget your Thunder Muscle.
