Editorial Reviews

Workaholics is a scripted series that follows three friends fresh out of college who live and work together as telemarketers. Dress codes, deadlines and waking up before noon aren't things these guys are used to. The crew spends their days scheming together to avoid doing any real work and their nights looking for good times.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Rude And Juvenile (and Oftentimes Hilarious) Comedy For Those That Appreciate Silliness July 27, 2011

By K. Harris HALL OF FAMETOP 10 REVIEWER

Format:DVD

Despite its title, the Comedy Central produced "Workaholics" is not a traditional work place sitcom. It is a quintessential stoner/slacker comedy featuring three friends as they adapt (or refuse to adapt) to the increasingly complex world of adulthood. The guys are continuously rude, obnoxious and/or clueless and yet the bonds of their friendship may stretch, but never break--even when they behave in the most horrifying ways to one another. Unabashedly silly and crude, and oftentimes hilarious, this comedy makes no apologies for what it is. Not for sensitive viewers, this is in-your-face aggressive without a concern for political correctness or appropriateness. It is the irreverent "anything can happen" feel that is the core selling point for this ridiculously appealing show. I suspect that if you enjoy the wild antics of "Workaholics," you will become a fervent and vocal supporter of the show. If, however, it all seems a bit juvenile for your taste--there is a good chance you will absolutely loathe this program. This could very well be a love-it or hate-it proposition.

Season One lines up ten episodes which spend about equal time between work and other recreational activities. Some of the strongest episodes do deal specifically with the job site. In one episode, the boys vie for a promotion and their warfare against one another becomes increasingly brutal. In another, the boys organize a strike when the bosses won't recognize a completely ridiculous holiday. The season finale (with an invaluable assist by guest Chris Parnell as the company's CEO) has the guys fighting to save the company itself! It's all over-the-top and silly but that's the charm. In one of the show's most uncomfortable episodes, the boys befriend a child predator because he's a cool guy.... Hey, you can't argue with that kind of reasoning!

The show succeeds on the chemistry between its leads--Anders Holm, Blake Anderson, and Adam DeVine. While all fill their particular niche to perfection, it is Holm that is the stand-out for me. The only character that straddles the worlds of adolescence and adulthood--he is oftentimes made the stooge for trying to be successful. Jillian Bell provides great support as an off-beat co-worker that gets into her share of trouble as well, and Maribeth Monroe is delightful as the boss consistently pushed over the edge of reason. This is a deft comedy of slapstick and silliness. Its humor is crude and juvenile. If you don't like that sort of thing--then, by all means, stay far away. If, however, your looking for a good fix of rude and rollicking laughs--give it a shot. KGharris, 7/11. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Workaholics, hmmm. Sounds questionable.............. September 16, 2011

By James A. Plaisted

Format:DVD

I was advised to check this show out by my youngest brother who is only 19. I have a hard time finding new shows to watch because I hate taking the time to see If I even like a show. Workaholics was easy to digest. I went to school at San Diego State where slackin off is appreciated as more of an art form. Watching this show makes me think I lived with these guys sometime around 2003. I was smoking a lot of green back then so it is possible that we all lived together and I just forgot. If only for street cred, I still own a device that could be classified as a "Vape Tron", although mine does not have an aluminum chasis.

This show is beyond hilarious. It is done so well that it never comes off as fake, forced or lame. The characters are all great and you really learn to appreciate their little intricacies as you watch one episode to the next. I highly recommend this show to people who think it is funny to play pranks on thier friends and laugh at topics that most people get uncomfortable with. I DVR'ed the first season and still watch it on the regular. So good. There is also an abundance of great lines that you can steal from this show and use in society. Definitily check out: To Friend a Predator, and the Body Building episode. I garauntee if you give this show a chance and watch atleast two episodes, you will love Workaholics. I would love to tell you a lil bit more about this comedic masterpiece but I clocked a resy at a schiek lil bistro downtown and I'd hate to be late. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious (For guys) May 4, 2011

By Tim H

I've seen the first 2 episodes with the Hulu Plus Trial and now want to purchase them all on Amazon because... They're hysterical. This show is not even a month old but it delivers great one liners, random quotes, awkward body language and scenarios that make you actively watch to pick up on all of it despite the crude and immature behavior throughout the show. It reminds you of the wannabe frat boys in college but this trio of rooommates pulls it off and makes you jealous that you're not a part of their entourage. Similar to "The League" on FX, you'll be hooked after just one episode!!

4.0 out of 5 stars An Unexpected Winner February 26, 2012

By Shane Windham

Format:DVD

While this show may not fit the bill of every office worker around, it certainly highlights the over-the-top realities of those socially unsound nerds you love to hate. Workaholics is endlessly witty, even when it doesn't mean to be, and is the sort of show you'll find yourself quoting in spite of yourself. Each new episode provided a fresh perspective, and the mood generally remained lighthearted; even when the content matter was very adult. I'd highly recommend this show to anyone who enjoy the writing found within movies like Grandma's Boy, The Hangover, etc. There is a lot to love here, if you've a taste for witty, yet juvenile comedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome series July 10, 2011

By D-Rock

This is a great series I've just gotten caught up on. It reminds me of Office Space in a sense, but much funnier. The characters fit together so well and they each have their own specific personality. Check out just part of an episode, a youtube clip, or a preview on Amazon and you won't be disappointed.
