Thanks OP! I utterly hate those shows. So I’m bound to hate this one too. What an easy decision!
Um…. Filibuster
Okay ill bite, why do you hate its always sunny?
For me, the secondhand embarrassment is too much. Love Silicon Valley though!
Have you watched Curb Your Enthusiasm?
I feel like it's significantly worse for that
Or the original UK office.
The IT crowd is one of the worst I know
Had to pause midway through almost every episode to get over the embarrassment
I liked the title original title "Jerks" much better. When you understand its supposed to be like "Friends" if they were all jerks instead, it makes more sense.
I don’t like watching a show about bad people, nor do I like watching bad things happen to people, whether they’re bad or not. I like the occasional clip like kitten mittens, but the rest of the show is not my bag.
I also liked Silicon Valley though
Just a bunch of folks being utter jerks for no reason? The 5 episodes I watched scarred me enough to want to never go back. To me, it's a crass show. But if you enjoy it, good for you!
That's fair, I enjoy watching them act like jerks and then getting their comeuppance for being jerks.
