Its a great show. Its mindless and really funny, just like a comedy should be. I even got the kids singing some jingles from the show. "Devaraux" lol, this was my favorite ad they did.
its not a show where you have to watch from the beginning of the season, each episode seems to have its own story. its worth dvr'ing.
Its not racist, like some are saying. Its just funny.

I LOVE this show. The writing is extremely clever and funny. The relationship between the two lead guys is truly believable. I've worked at a small ad agency, and they get much of the feel of doing local work, although the work seems to be remeniscent I'd what an agency would do in the 80s rather than today. Still, the writing and characters are incredible, and the story arcs that bring clients and others across episodes in hilarious ways shows the level of thought the writers are putting in. It's a great half hour to let loose and enjoy.
This was such a unique, hilarious show and can't really imagine why it was canceled. With all the mediocrity that garners attention nowadays, this show deserved a bigger audience. Watch "Smilin' Jack" featuring Keegan-Michael Key. It'll make you're day ... every time you watch it.
Detroiters is a show that is willing to be absolutely ridiculous while still telling a story that takes place in the real world. The show is shot on location in Detroit and the guest stars are usually people from detroit. That's the best part of the show, detroit itself is a character in the show, one that the two stars make fun of in a loving way. Detroit is as essential to Detroiters as New York is to When Harry Met Sally. The adds made in the show are based on the adds the two stars of the show watched growing up in detroit. In real life Tim is married and Sam is single. In real life both of the lead actors are best friends. This show is wonderfully original and surprisingly autobiographical, there's nothing else like it. If you are ready to watch a show that is orriginal, funny, and heartwarming, watch detroiters.
I love their friendship and the jokes are funny and if you are a local, there is a LOT of inside jokes and celebs. Kinda like a love letter to the good parts of Detrizzle. I could deal with a couple of more seasons of this show. I wish them luck in future projects. They did a good job with this show.
