    So funny.

    Tim is a very nice and very boring person and only bad things happen to him. His reactions to other people is my favorite part. They will say something crazy and he stays calm and says something hilarious. Love it.

    Fantastic new animation - An unseen gem - one watch and you're hooked!

    The Life and Times of Tim features just that; the day-to-day life of an ordinary 25 year old New Yorker, trying to talk his way out of horribly embarrassing situations. Tim really has the worst luck, and his dry, dead-pan excuses are the centre piece of this show.

    I urge you to watch just one story (there are two per episode) as you'll be hooked. The writing is very good. It's a little surreal how things could go so badly but it lends to hilarious situations and dialogue.

    Give it a chance, like Arrested Development, it won't be appreciated en masse during it's run.

    With so many animations that are faltering in great humour (I rarely laugh out loud the Simpsons, Family Guy or American Dad any more - South Park still does the business from time to time) This show had me laughing really hard a few times per episode.

    I've gotten everyone I've shown "Tim" to into the show, which is actually saying a lot. I really hope it gets a second season at least.

    Enjoy watching!

    This is just funny

    It doesn't take itself seriously at all, and never comes across as self-indulgent or forcing humor onto the viewer. It's easy comedy, not in the sense that no effort was put into it, but rather that even on your worst day, coming home after exhausting work, you'd still find enthusiasm for a quick episode. It's smooth viewing, funny and intelligible, and the story makes sense and is consistently straightforward yet fresh. The plots are funny and offer enough variety, but it's the specific situations in each episode that are at times hilarious. Tim is just doing his best not to be singled out, not to be noticed, and he somehow finds himself in the spotlight in the worst possible way every time.

    One of the funniest moments I can remember is the very first scene and Dildarian (creator and voice of Tim) really did an excellent job capturing what the show was about in that opening scene to get the audience hooked. Other moments include any time some super exaggerated story is made up of Tim that makes him look like a miserable little creature, any scene involving Tim and his girlfriend Amy's family (the best by far being his phone call with the mom about the cook book), usually any moment involving the Boss and just the mere fact he's simply known as "the Boss", when he pretends he's got 'tell the truth' syndrome and verbally assaults everyone in the office under orders from the boss, most of the scenes with the priest...

    The ridiculous, crummy animation is absolutely perfect given the type of humor in question, and you can tell Dildarian had fun with just the animation alone in certain scenes, for eg when Tim's on the bus and the old man challenges him to a boxing match and repeatedly slaps him in the face, and the scene lasts about 5 or 6 slaps too long on purpose. It's so underwhelming and flat it's hilarious to watch.

    The animation is arguably symbolic of how exactly underwhelming and ordinary life is. How unimpressive, and flat (literally as flat as a child's 2D drawings) life is.

    The Best New Show on TV

    I know that cartoons aimed towards adults generally don't get the attention they deserve, because they get written off as childish or don't capture interests as quickly as attractive/famous real-life characters can. But PLEASE, give this show a chance! I promise that just one episode of this show will have you hooked. I haven't laughed out loud this much since arrested development (R.I.P.) and the humor is similarly fast paced and, at times, absurd. The show is a half hour long, divided into two 15 minute episodes, which makes the show very watchable even for people who don't think they can devote an entire 30 minutes to a cartoon.

    Everything about this show is hilarious--the scenarios, the dry dialogue, the buildup to inevitable madness, and the horribly drawn but wonderfully fleshed-out characters. The show follows Tim, who is frequently caught in admittedly outlandish situations, although they always seem to spiral out of control so realistically. He and the supporting cast of characters all have their own stand out performances, including Debbie the friend/hooker and Amy the girlfriend, who is perpetually disappointed in her well-meaning but just plain awful boyfriend. So before you write it off simply because it's an adult cartoon, watch just ONE episode. Hell, even watch one half of an episode. That's 15 minutes of your time that will quickly lead to you watching every episode, I promise.

    I haven't laughed so hard at a Show for a while.

    So in Australia SBS is the channel with weird-as sit on late at night, IE; A cartoon about a lady bus-driver who sucks every passengers...yeah.

    Anyway I was bored, it was 11:30 at night, and this show came on, I watched from the beginning, the show looked shaky at best, less than a minute in I was chuckling, it then turned into non-stop laughs for me, by the time I had recovered from one hilarious section, another hit me, I couldn't stop laughing, it was hilarious, the combination of terrible situations combined with dry humor/sarcasm at the ridiculousness of the situation makes this a great combination. It's like when your friend crashes his car, get's out and says "Well this is good."

    10/10 Very dry, very original, very funny.
