    A very funny show

    A friend of mine got me started on "Less Than Perfect" and I'm glad they did. This show has one of the best casts on television, and the scripts are consistently funny. The stories seem character-driven, and the characters are great.

    As with News Radio (which Andy Dick and Patrick Warburton both appeared in), if you're not a fan of Andy Dick's, you may as well just turn off the set. He can either annoy the hell out of you or you love him. I happen to think he's a riot and always have.

    One thing I love about the show is its presentation of overweight women as sexy and attractive. I wouldn't call Sara Larue seriously overweight, but let's face it, she's not Hollywood thin. Yet she's adorable. Sherri Shepherd is cute as anything, as she always is, and can deliver a line like no one else. One of my favorite episodes was when they all took pole dancing class. A scream.

    Andrea Parker of "The Pretender" is as gorgeous as ever and very funny.

    I hope this show continues on the air.

    Actually Good!

    I've seen two episodes of this so far (one from last season and one from this season) and it's actually funny!

    I was expecting it to be another one of the air headed, stupid sitcoms that are run of the mill nowadays but it's a funny show!

    I'm sure most people just skip over this thinking that "oh it's just another crappy new sitcom...it'll probably get canceled soon..." well it hasn't been canceled yet and it surely isn't crappy!

    If you're like me and hate the new unintelligent sitcoms that are oh so common today and think that this show is one of them, you're wrong...watch it and find out like I did--that it's a funny show!

    Perfect

    This cute little TV show is about an office and the crazy antics that go on there. The characters are charming from Sara Rue to Andy Dick. The premise is that the protagonist is "less than perfect" at a pantsize of 10.

    (Didn't you guys know? A size 10 woman is MORBIDLY OBESE in today's Hollywood????) Well anyway. I think the show is great. It is a breath of fresher air since we lost the fabulous Seinfeld. I love how the writers manage to keep nearly all the story lines in the office. I think we all could use an office atmosphere like this with such nice coworkers and a full service cafeteria on-site. I hope this lasts for many more seasons.

    Great Show

    As soon as I found out Andy Dick was on this show I knew I had to watch it. I loved him on Newsradio and it's great to see him playing a character that's a little less than smart. I also think Sara Rue is great. Her character is human and easy to relate to. I hope this show has a long run.

    Very good sitcom

    I caught Less Than Perfect during one of its reruns on Russian TV and was amazed how funny it is. The main character Claudia Casey (Sara Rue) arrives in New York and manages to get a position of a personal assistant to TV news anchor Will Butler (Eric Roberts). The show chronicles Claudia's triumphs and failures as she climbs the career ladder. Her two best friends – neurotic Owen (Andy Dick) and pleasantly plump Ramona (Sherri Shepherd) will teach her to survive in this "beware of your office mates" world. Zachary Levi and Andrea Parker portray model-looking Kipp and Lydia- two self-centered, ego-driven office villains who can not wait to see Claudia up and go. There is a lot of talking about relationship, dating, shoes and "how to shut up that guy standing near my cubic and speaking so loudly on the phone". Very funny and all actors are very good. All in all very good sitcom.
