Review

http://www.metacritic.com/tv/workaholics/season-1/user-reviews



When you think of the word workaholic, a lot of things come to mind. The word workaholic means that someone is addicted to work. It also implies that a person enjoys work more then their family/social life. To me this sounds absolutely insane! How could anyone be addicted to work, or like working more then hanging out with friends and family? The Comedy Central show Workaholics puts the workplace into a whole new perspective.
            Workaholics is a comedy series that tells the story of three young men who recently graduated college and now are being faced with the obstacles of the real world. Blake, Anders, and Adam play the roles of these three men, and their efforts in the workplace are far from serious. Anders takes the role of the leader in the group. He is a ex-swimmer and has hopes of one day becoming mayor. Blake is a super chill, layed back, guy that plays the role of the mediator of the group. Adam is a little nut job that lives life to the fullest. He definitely isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer but that doesn’t stop him from busting out a flex and always trying to show off his muscles. These three men live and work together every day. They make the workspace a fun and interesting place to be. Not one day is ever the same. You can expect to see them chasing women, smoking and drinking religiously, or chasing down Internet pedophiles rather frequently. They take their crazy care-free lifestyles and pack them in their suit cases every day.
            Workaholics is a rather new show. It had good success its first season, and is currently working on putting a second season together. The show comes on weekly at 10pm, and run for relatively thirty to forty minutes. I would not recommend this show to someone that is young or not watching it with an adult. It is aimed towards the teen to thirty-year-old audience. There is a lot of adult humor that may not be appropriate for a young audience.
            After viewing multiple episodes and sitting down with friends and watching the show I would give it two thumbs up and four out of five stars. If you’re the type of person that has a weird sense of humor and has a sense of adventure I would definitely recommend Workaholics to the audience that this appeals to. Every episode has you bent over laughing, and you will find yourself quoting the show for weeks to follow.
