It had a voice from the get-go. That's what was so awesome about it. You knew who all four of the main girls were so quickly, that you could semi-accurately predict how they would act by the end. Unheard of.

Watched it. It's fine. Doesn't look like it's for me, but I may check it out when the season is over, depending on word of mouth.

According to critics, this was the "worst"of the 3 episodes they screened

Watched it. Um...I mean, it was interesting...but was this supposed to be a comedy? Because...yeah...I didn't laugh. Or really smirk. May not be for me.

I was laughing the entire time. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

"I know she'll show up in a blankety dress that she got at some Gretian marketplace, and be all like, 'oh, I don't remember where I got this.'"

Pilot is brilliant so far. Everything I was hoping it would be and then some. I can easily understand this not being for a lot of people, but it's exactly what I've been wanting from a comedy recently.

The delivery on that line was fantastic.

The pilot got a few laughs from me but the episode was all setup and when it ended I felt like I needed to immediately watch another episode because nothing had happened yet. I'm hoping the rest of the season doesn't suffer because of a short run time.

I was at that meeting. Lena Dunham stormed into the room like she owned the place and demanded to cancel Bored to Death for her own show.

Another A+ post from mht.

I didn't want to watch it because it sounds like Sex and the City but they are younger.
Then I turned it on and I heard the one girl saying "I think i'm more of a Samantha" and immediately turned it off.

Also the characters just seemed too unlikable.


I wish HBO would have just kept Hung and Bored to Death over this and Enlightened.

Lol, you're so wrong. That character is overly satirised, and you had no context. Not to mention that you're shutting yourself off from a lot of great TV if unlikable characters turn you away.

Also, Hung was awful, Bored To Death wasn't that great and got three seasons, and Enlightened is awesome. They're making good decisions at HBO.
