I've always heard tell that this show was a guys show, but I found it enjoyable (didnt necessary agree with everything the guys did... ).
One reason to like this show: Cameos, cameos, cameos! I mean, I never imagined Bob Saget would say the F word! (Having grown up watching Full House, this one had me like :O )
But what got me hooked and got me going after every episode was Jeremy Piven. It was more than his character's dialogue, it was they way Ari Gold delivered dialogue. He is cruel, homophobic, racist, sarcastic. And thats all just his attitude towards his assistant. Despite the character's obvious negative attitude, he was a genuine pleasure to watch. I genuinely think he got the best lines in episode, in fact, the whole show even. I mean its saying something, when he can deliver lines like
-Ari Gold: All right. Well, I'll just sexually harass her until she quits. -Ari Gold: That was a good speech, Lloyd. If I was 25 and liked cock, we could be something. -(Lloyd: Are you hiding something from me, Ari?) Ari Gold: Only my cock and my asshole, Lloyd
and not only get away with it, but make you laugh and make you like him despite having morals yourself.
Another mention why I loved certain episodes: Rhys Coiro as Billy Walsh. His disdain for E, his creative process. He was great fun to watch on the show.
I'll recommend this to those who want to watch something lighthearted and that doesn't require brains or concentration.
