Off Centre has to be one of, if not the Funniest Comedies I have ever seen... You Know!
All the characters have a quirkiness about them... especially John Cho's character Chau, a Vietnamese restaurant worker / owner. The other characters are Euan an English stud, Mike an American dork (with principles) who roomed together at Oxford. As well as Status Quo an extremely sensitive and cultured gangster rapper (the mix is extremely funny). Besides the 4 guys there is the one girl who goes out with Mike but adds to the humour. There are also a mix of famous extras from Carmen Electra to Eugene Levy to Jason Biggs to Shannon Elizabeth as well as some characters who moved onto Heroes.
This show gives laughters from beginning to end and after the first couple of episodes, once you relate to the characters, you are hooked. The writers did an amazing job in finding the exact humour in each character and the actors perform them to a T (especailly John Cho). The story line / lines usually surround the premise that Euan is a stub and gets lots of girls while Mike and Chau do not. However, within this premise there are many sub stories that are just so strange and weird and that's what makes it extremely funny!
It is a pity that WB cancelled the show and didn't let them finish their 2nd season... what a waste - WB could have had high ratings, entered a new market for comedy or sold the show to another network, but apart from being their loss... it was ours too.
