Reviews

zappe I'am from Europe and when this show hits the internet here it's Saturday, around 4AM. At that time I'am either buzzing from Friday night out, or I'am down because I spent entire evening at home. In any case I eagerly await to see new episodes after which I go to sleep with happy thoughts. When I review movies there is whole bunch of things I look at, but when I rate a comedy show there is only one valid criteria - does it make me laugh. And Friends with Benefits definitely put a smile on my face every single time. Comedy itself is a very subjective matter, so I do understand people who aren't so enthusiastic as I am, but still I feel that the reviews here are just too harsh. For the people who are reading these comments and are considering whether to start watching this show; just go ahead, if you do like it you just might get one extra thing to look forward every week. It's worth a shot. Cheers
rcowlingva Just watched the NBC show "Friends With Benefits". It's a cross between the NBC show "Friends," the smell of ammonia, and strep throat. Pres. Obama's wish was fulfilled with this one - the show is, in fact, shovel ready. The show is not funny, poorly acted, predictable, and way too crude to be on at 8pm. I anxiously watch many new shows hoping for a treat like Arrested Development or Cheers. I am amazed that, even though ABC put the show on ice, that NBC tried to give the show a shot. Also amazed that the show has been on for almost a month and no one has heard of it. While it doesn't help, the best thing for the country is to add the cast and crew back to the unemployment roster.
rukmal1987 Well I was expecting a funny show since it is said to be a comedy. but I should say I was totally disappointed. with all those great shows on air i don't think this a series that you should waste your time on. The acting is poor to start with. and the jokes are pretty lame too. It looks like the actors are putting more effort just to make an impression and land bigger roles. besides although it is named friends with benefits, there is only one couple that has sex together. I think the concept alone could have been taken more seriously. So in conclusion all I can say is that if you don't mind wasting your time on some lame jokes then this might interest you. besides i don't think this deserves a second season either.
max jordan friends with benefits is a very interesting show starting with the characters each one is unique and likable which is different from most series which you don't always like all the characters . this show is really funny for the fact that its tv14 and has a lot of sex jokes unlike children shows which cant make most of the jokes this series can make . as we all know there's only two types of jokes 1)good jokes 2)clean jokes . hahahaha yes i know that its very interesting that all the good jokes are not clean . but i don't see this show having too much of a future but at the time that it is in fact airing it will definitely be a hell of a show !!!
