Free Ride (2006)
Terrible show
This show is not worth the time. The acting is pretty bad and the story line is just over the top. The kid graduates college but can't/doesn't want too/won't join the real world. The writing is really predictable and not funny. I've that a lot of the dialog is improvised which explains the lack of wit and really nonexistent story lines within the episodes. This show may hit home with some but if it does you probably will find it and his friend 'Dub' funny. I wouldn't expect it to be around for long as it has no redeeming qualities other than Fox proclaiming it the "funniest new show." Saying it as much as they like won't make it true. Production dollars would be spent better elsewhere.
The Loop (2006)
Funny
This show is pretty funny. The corporate environment that 'Thesis' works in is a pretty funny dialog about today's corporate environment. The stupid twenty-somethings aren't that funny, but the way they have the lead bouncing between climbing the corporate ladder and partying with friends is classic. Finally there is the demanding boss/owner of the company who has that twinkle in his eye as if he knows exactly what is going on at all times, especially with his prodigy 'Thesis'. Mimi Rodgers as the overly aggressive Mrs. Robinson gets some funny shots in as well. Yes, much is cliché, but there really isn't anything on TV that is similar today...Good show, watch some episodes and you'll be laughing, plus the blonde is pretty hot.
