Dalbert Pringle
Originally presented as a newspaper comic-strip - I found that the decidedly unfunny situations that took place in this TV show's half-hour, animated episodes were all (much to my annoyance) consistently milked completely bone-dry.Repeatedly - I found that every single character (including Dogbert) in these dull, flat episodes were all a totally unlikable bunch. Indeed.It sure seemed to me that this show's sole idea of humour, unfortunately, thrived on the callousness of sneering cynicism where everyone was far too eager to cut his fellow man down without even batting a single eyelash.All-in-all - I could not, for the life of me, relate to any of these vile characters, whatsoever. They were all downright sickening and despicable bores right to their very core.

Stars: Daniel Stern as Dilbert. Chris Elliot as Dogbert. Kathy Griffin as Alice. Gordon Hunt as Wally. Larry Miller as the Boss. Jackie Hoffman as Dilmom. Tom Kenny as Ratbert and Ashook. Jim Wise as Loud Howard. Jason Alexander as Catbert. Maurice La Marche as the Trash Man.This was one of those gem shows that for some reason only picked up a select cult audience. Because of that it was canceled, even though it was a great show. It was about workaholic Dilbert and his life in his cubicle. His closest friends are Dogbert, his talking pet dog that's smarter than him, Alice and Wally, his buddies from work and the mysterious trashman who always disappears after giving advice. I highly recommend you buy the DVD because this was a great show, and its a shame only 2 seasons were produced.My rating: 9 out of 10. 30 episodes. TV PG.

I just recently had the opportunity to watch Dilbert. My brother came home with the DVD Collection. It took me about a week to watch all 30 episodes but I was hooked from the very first one.When I was about to start high school, I applied to a special business high school and got in. But turned them down to go to regular high school with my peers. For years since I was so grateful that I decided not to go to that business school, I didn't want a office job when I got older, I didn't want a 9 to 5. But after watching Dilbert, I'm craving that experience. That life seems so exciting for some strange reason. So now coincidently I had made up my mind to be a Public Administration major before the show and its Cubical life and opted out. I'm so happy that I found Dilbert. Its weird but I look forward to it.Well my brother left, and took the collection with him. So I, on Sunday, scoured my newspaper and found the comics, searched for Dilbert and ripped it out. It's now hanging on my wall. I love the humor of Dilbert because its so honest. But my favorite thing of all is the opening sequence, it took me a while to figure it out, but Dilbert is what we become in life.I'll treasure my Dilbert learning experience for life.

I am a big fan of the comic strip, and I thought that the show would be just like the comic, but, alas, I was partially wrong. On one hand, the show is downright funny; no use in denying that. On the other hand, some of the humor found in the show is a bit...well, something you wouldn't find in the Sunday comics. I wouldn't go as far as to say"adult", so let's say that the show rating would be PG-13.Don't get me wrong, though. I think that the show faithfully follows the show. In short, you'll like the show if you can stand some of the humor that pops out sometimes, and the opening sequence is impressive. It's a sigh of relief to know that Dilbert and Dogbert have mouths after all.
