    Brilliant, hilarious, unique new series!!

    I'm so glad to see I'm not the only person who absolutely loves this show! I love the quick witty dialogue and the casting is perfect. It's been a while since I've been pushed to tears from laughing so incredibly hard..brilliant stuff. It's definitely crude and gross at times, but that's what makes the show so funny. I really can't see how this show's content would offend anybody any more than some of the other things I regularly see on television. I really hope FX keeps this show for at least a few more seasons! Unfortunately, I've been seeing way too many unique and amazing shows being canceled entirely too soon, barely getting a chance to make it through its first season... Testees is honestly one of the funniest things on TV right now, in my opinion. I hope it sticks around for awhile!

    Good Show But could have been KvS S7

    As a Kenny vs. Spenny fan, I of course had to watch this.

    Kenny Hotz's passion project, Testees, could have been Kenny vs. Spenny Season 7, but instead, he got a chance to make this unique series. The premise alone is intriguing: two no-lifes becoming test subjects for a crazy company called Testico. It brings to mind the quirky humor of shows like Better Off Ted.

    I really like the concept of the series-it's great-but the plot and overall execution are good at best. While the scenarios are often hilarious and outrageous, the episodic nature sometimes leads to uneven storytelling. There are moments of brilliance, but also parts that feel underdeveloped.

    Jeff Kassel and Steve Markle did a great job acting in this series. Their chemistry and comedic timing elevate the material, making even the most absurd situations entertaining. Their ability to fully commit to their roles adds a layer of authenticity to the offbeat humor.

    Despite its flaws, Testees is a fun watch, especially for fans of Kenny Hotz's unique brand of comedy. It's a wild ride through bizarre experiments and absurd situations, showcasing Hotz's distinctive voice in the world of comedy.

    Overall, Testees is a solid effort with a great concept, some genuinely funny moments, and strong performances from its leads. It's a shame it didn't get more attention, as it had the potential to become a cult classic.

    The FUNNIEST thing I've seen on TV in a long, long time!

    I was almost completely asleep when I started hearing the dialog from this show on TV last night. Even before my eyes opened, I was chuckling. Finally awaking, I was like WTF am I watching?! By the commercial break . . .

    Testees! Brace yourself. It's weird, awkward and GROSS! You'll almost be ashamed of yourself during and after watching. But just go with it! Because it has some of the most improbable yet funniest scenes of all-time. Lots of sophomoric humor with dry, comedic dialog. For ADULTS only though. Somehow it just works!

    OMG, I must see every single episode now! I just hope they can keep it up . . .

    Don't watch it while you eat!

    This show is not meant for these who seriously believe what others think because there are a lot of exaggerated stereotypes. Few gross things in the show are true about guys , but only guys like me.

    For those who don't watch p*** , you are going to learn a lot of new words. But don't worry its not too late just open "urbandictionary.com" for all the inappropriate words you might encounter while watching the show.

    And about no eating , I strictly recommend not to eat while watching this show because there are lot of long humorous scenes. I mean if you can hold food in mouth for like 60 seconds and start munching again then its fine. Rest of you people will die if you eat while watching this. STOP reading more comments just watch the show now.

    Great show

    I started watching this one on a recommendation of a friend. I started slow ... But watching the sheer audacity of some of the scenes (specially online where they were not filtered by the FCC) chuckled a lot and by the end left craving for more Good job Great Actors Cant wait for more. The interplay between the two main actors that played Ron and Peter was classic ... tension but overall a great love that contributed to the humor of the show. The differences magnified the comedy but maintained them being a believable duo

    One hopes that I also am able to catch those quickly, and online where the comedy will not be censored

    Keep up the great work and have a great next season!
