anav-57696 Probably the best shows I've watched in the last few years. An excellent dark satirical comedy-drama where the main characters are experiencing different issues, all very relatable, as far as I am concerned ! This is a show where a clever mix or imaginary worlds collide with the reality of life, and where technology, corporate America and the idealist views, highlight the terrible state in which most of us actually live….in a society dominated by superficiality, greed and ignorance. If some of the personal challenges , Thom and Lee face, might not be relevant to everyone, the work/office ones are definitely easy to appreciate! If you're Happy and You Know It - watch Happyish and you might start asking yourself a few questions

acinometeucap Excellent show! Great cast for the wittiest, life based comedy I've watched so far. It will sting, sometimes even hurt, to be confronted with some of the silliest things we all have to deal with in our lives, but if you are not a cynic it will make you laugh! Pertinent questions are asked and answered in this show. We've all stopped to think about the meaning of things and of life itself from time to time. This show is so brilliantly written that it will, most certainly, bring up that one question you keep asking yourself and your friends. It will deconstruct it and turn it into something laughable. It will make you Happy-ish!

nixon carmichael Originally planned with the late and great Phil Hoffman in mind, Steven Coogan has taken up the mantle of the impotent and increasingly overqualified, if self- entitled main character. We are immediately thrust into the life of Thom Payne, a British (of course) shill for the advertising industry desperately clinging to relevance in a world that is leaving him behind.After a baffling and somewhat incoherent opening rant against Mount Rushmore we find out that Thom's winter of discontent comes at the hands of his new corporate overlords, half his age, and of course they are portrayed as 20 something, Scandinavian, euro- hipster clones who maliciously forsake everything Thom holds dear in the name of Twitter feeds, YouTube posts and Facebook updates.Jammed between whimsical scenes of Kathryn Hahn having arguments with her overbearing Yiddish mother (personified by a talking ups package) and a weird scene with Coogan having aggressive sex with an animated keebler elf (yes both of those things actually happen), the breath of fresh air, Bradley Whitford, emerges as Coogan's direct supervisor and voice of reason to Coogan's outlandish antics and tantrums.The show works, just not the way the creators intended. Rather than a referendum against the Internet age and millennial hipsterism, the show turned out to be the examination of aging Gen-Xers, desperately clinging to relevancy and resisting a world of their own creation.

Aktham Tashtush The plot is nice , the whole idea of a man getting old and trying to find happiness in a community of teenagers is really thorough and has many potentials on TV.Watching the character "Thom Payne" made me a bit sad at first like he's 40 something having Insomnia and trying to deal with his kid and assure him that he's not dying soon !!Steve Coogan is really funny,, seems like many shows now a days casting at least one British actor .. i don't really know what that's all about but it kinda works.There were moments of dreamy scenes by "Thom Payne" like the one talking about his body inside the gym or when he talks to the cartoons those were cool."If Sam wants to keep that happiness he's gotta suck some cock, same cocks we do" :D :DIt officially premieres on April 26, 2015 .. until then i wish the show gets More-ish with the comedy bits and less on the the drama even though the balance on the comedy/drama seems right in here but we really need some real comedy :D .. i think Showtime will deal with that............................ Update ..............................So i'm done watching the 2nd and 3rd episodes and honestly, things aren't really going as good as i wanted it to get. the scenes where the animated talking boxes or Geckos appear are getting a bit annoying and out of purpose..................................................................
