This one is a hillarious show from the makers of "Arrested Development", and it has a similar feel to it.
The whole show is situated at a imaginary mega corporation called "Veridian Entreprises" where all workers are like numbers, and the only concern is the bottom line. Mmm.. isn't that always the case?
Ted is the boss of R&D in that corporation , and being a good guy, he tries to juggle raising a daughter, keeping the workers happy, and trying to find love all at the same time.
with it's colorful cast of off-the-wall characters such as lem and phil, the crazed scientists, Linda the pretty girl who works under Ted and wants to be more then just his employee, and Last but definitely not least, Veronica, the robotic, crazy and fierce boss of all of them (Ted included) - this show has something to offer for everyone.
Each episode something crazy happens and somehow, by the end of the episode all is right and fine in the world. But in the most crazy funny way.
Again, don't take my word for it. Watch it. It's full of laugh and charm.
"Human Target" is a fairly new show that started its first season on Fox not long ago.
HT is based on a comic book series by the same name. The hero of the show is Christopher Chance, a mysterious man who acts as a bait/bodyguard for those who are under threat and can afford his expensive services.
The show has a good pace, and enough twists and turns so as not to bore you after the first few episodes. In the background of things, several by-plots are persued such as what was in the past of our hero, who are his friends, and why he does what he does.
To me it's like a mix of James Bond, McGuyver, and 24 for added flavor. The characters has enough meat to chew on, and the nature of the show retains its comic-book roots. There are some low points as to the cast, but as the show focuses mainly upon Mr. Chance, it doesnt stick out enough as to drive people away.
Let's just hope that FOX doesn't cut this show before it has a chance to rise and shine.
This one is my favourite show. It faced extinction but survived against the odds thanks to a very faithful fanbase and the help of the cast.
The show revolves around the character of
Chuck (duh) who was a tech support smart guy who had to leave his studies due to bogus charges.
** Warning! SPOILERS! ** Warning! SPOILERS! ** Warning! SPOILERS! **
Chuck's life goes through a life-changing transition when he gets a very special message from his college old friend and betrayer Bryce Larkin. Bryce sends chuck a huge database that gets absorbed into chuck's brain and leaves him as the only working "copy" of that super-computer, after Bryce destroys the original Computer.
As the "Intersect" (that's the name of the super-computer-database of intelligence data)
Chuck faces both danger of being found out and exploited, and the challenge of using his knowledge to help his country with various intelligence missions.
Chuck had reached its 3rd season after almost being dropped at the end of Season 2.
Both persistence (of fans and cast) and enlisted funding of "
Subway" sandwich company helped the show return for a 3rd (and hopefully not last) season.
There's much to tell about the show's hillarious humor, great writing, cool/nerdy characters and very distinct look. But all I want to say is: GO WATCH IT!
Get all the seasons available, and start from season 1.
It's techie, it's funny, and its very very addictive.
