Friends with Benefits

I'll be honest: I only bothered watching this show for two of its stars, Danneel Ackles and Zach Cregger, and I didn't really expect to enjoy it. The plot sounded unoriginal, and I have very little faith in movie and TV studios to actually bother making things good anymore. That said, I absolutely adore 'Friends with Benefits,' and I think anyone with a sense of humor and no ego will, too.

The show is solid. All its lead actors are adorable and funny, both slapstick and subdued in their humor, and play their roles with a simplicity and honesty that makes them hard to hate. Each episode features a standalone storyline interwoven with the established, budding, and evolving relationships amongst the group of friends, and everything about them is right.

The real reason people don't seem to like this show is, as far as I can tell, that people seem to have very high standards for what they consider comedy. Naturally, there are comedies that are brilliantly crafted instant classics, and 'FWB' isn't one of them. What it is, though, is playful escapism that will make you giggle, if not laugh hysterically, every episode. And, if you're lucky enough to watch it with a friend like I am, the source of endless new inside jokes.

Totes radicchio!

It does have a great leading lady, hot and chatty. And a fun leading man, The party down blonde, he seems to be enjoying every comedy moments. I do hope for better writing though. And less obtrusive sound and songs, and the sex noise too. Keep it down a notch, we all know it is fake. It is just not fun too see that women can do so easily faking it.

The chemistry is a bit weird. Most seems to have nothing in common with each other. Same thing I should say with my friends. And it is refreshing to see none was related and somewhat staying together. Post friends and How i met your mother this one was a breath of fresh air, somehow works in charm anyway. It is amazing to see the funny bits involving vegetables, that one makes me laugh hard.

It takes more than open bra moments to make a show sexy. The network shows should learn from fx and showtime, they can make things sexy without showing anything. I don't know if its enough for a lure to a wide audience but hey, it would help a lot anyway.

Well I was expecting a funny show since it is said to be a comedy. but I should say I was totally disappointed. with all those great shows on air i don't think this a series that you should waste your time on. The acting is poor to start with. and the jokes are pretty lame too. It looks like the actors are putting more effort just to make an impression and land bigger roles. besides although it is named friends with benefits, there is only one couple that has sex together. I think the concept alone could have been taken more seriously. So in conclusion all I can say is that if you don't mind wasting your time on some lame jokes then this might interest you. besides i don't think this deserves a second season either.

friends with benefits is a very interesting show starting with the characters each one is unique and likable which is different from most series which you don't always like all the characters . this show is really funny for the fact that its tv14 and has a lot of sex jokes unlike children shows which cant make most of the jokes this series can make . as we all know there's only two types of jokes 1)good jokes 2)clean jokes . hahahaha yes i know that its very interesting that all the good jokes are not clean . but i don't see this show having too much of a future but at the time that it is in fact airing it will definitely be a hell of a show !!!

I started to watch this show mostly because of Danneel (Harris-)Ackles. I saw the trailer on youtube and I kinda liked it, I thought "why not? it seems fun"; so I started it.

The first episode wasn't that bad, however in my opinion it wasn't better than 6/10. The next three episodes were satisfactory, but the more episodes I watched the worse it became.

Around episode 4 or 5, the show wasn't funny anymore. It was idiotic, non- realistic (which is, as regards, not necessarily important 'cause it's a TV show), annoying with non-lovable characters and stupid decisions, not to mention the dialogs.

In summary, it wasn't worth my time. I didn't even watch it to the end.
