Man Seeking Woman

If you were able to watch Monty Python Flying Circus, you'll be able to enjoy this one to. A lot of absurdity, but in a good way. But it takes some adjusting to it.. You might get offended here and there.. wandering if they didn't took it too far. This is why, it's better to watch in a company. Also, watching it alone might make you miss a thing or two while laughing or simply because too much is going on.

For my personal taste: It would be much, much better if less time would be given to special effects and more effort to dialog's and characters to evolve. But then it wouldn't be what it is now.

I like the not so subtle critique of modern society.. I was able to survive majority of the things shown in the series.. and it's refreshing that someone else is able to see that in an absurd, comic way.

This show is absolutely one of the stupidest things I have ever seen yet it is incredibly funny and insightful. It's not just a brain dead spoof show. The creators have put a lot of thought into the concept and execution. The cast included.

It may seem a little extreme but who hasn't faced some of these emotions and felt that their world was going to end. People naturally have a tendency to overreact. All they have done is turned it into a literal representation. Each episode I find myself relating to his angst and uncertainty. It's ridiculous but comically realistic.

And don't be confused into thinking it's a laugh riot as the humour is more intelligent than that. It won't be for everyone but everyone should be able to relate.

First off, stop reading about this show, just watch it, go in knowing nothing. I had never seen anything besides a couple random 15 second ads for the show that didn't make sense at the time, but now it all clicks. I have never laughed so hard at a premier of a show in my life and I was watching it by myself and sober (though I do think that might be the ideal way to watch this show as it somehow adds to it all).

If you're a male in your 20s you will have no problem relating to this show, though everyone will find something to relate to just the further away you are from that benchmark the less you might relate. I'll admit I fall into that bucket and the show just hits everything on the head.

I'll be very interested to see how this show progresses because it is so extremely novel one does fear it might run out things to cover. I've yet to see signs of that, but I'm only 4 episodes in. So we'll see, I remain hopeful, go watch it!

Man seeking woman is definitely a surprise. For those of us who rejoice with absurd humour we are in for a treat. The story does not seem to follow a real story and might not make you burst out in laughter, but it will make you, for sure, comment to your friends and family about it. Some of the ideas are so damn ludicrous you eventually get hooked to it. Besides, some of the ideas you will see in here will have previously crossed your mind in several occasions, it's funny because you will see them in an actual show and think: "hey, i once thought of that! I am not such a weirdo after all!". Well... thats cute. Yes you are. So am i. And so is this show.So now let's enjoy it.

**PERTAINING TO THE BAD REVIEWS OF THIS TITLE ON IMDb**

Although the sample size might not be big enough, it seems like the bad reviews of this program on IMDb are exclusively written from non-American accounts. Maybe the writing of this show is just not destined to do well in foreign lands.

**MAIN OPINION**

While the show is way over the top, I think if you just relax and don't take it seriously, that's what makes it hilarious. Constantly the show might fool you into thinking Josh is in some sort of dream or day-dream when this is the shows reality; from a blind date with an actual troll to sitting with America's council of defense contemplating what the contents of his text should be to a girl he met on the train, this show is goofy is heck darn it.

**THE PILOT**

So often pilots are so crammed with exposition of the characters and the main driving force of the show or plot that good writing can be hard to find in a comedy. This is a good example of what a pilot can be. I was able to learn the role of each character without them being force fed to me. And I got to chuckle throughout the episode. Comparing the first episode to the rest of the season, it's very consistent, meaning you should probably be able to tell if the show is or isn't for you just by watching the pilot.
