i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

10 items or less may not seem like much at first, but it quickly sprawls into a hilarious comedy fun for the whole family. The plot is that the main character returns to his fathers store in ohio after he passes to continue running it. From there on you just see crazy antics of his staff and their weird lives. Shot in similar ways comparable to "Parks and Recreation" and "The Office", 10 items or less uses improv and setting to its full advantage. The only disadvantage is the small amount of episodes, with only 3 seasons and limited episodes per season, the show only lasts 21 episodes. However, it is certainly a wonderful show.

If I were to venture a guess, TBS spent most of its budget on My Boys and when the numbers came in lower than expected, they spent the surplus money on this cheap The Office knockoff. I don't know if the producers were drunk or deluded, but contrary to their belief, rewriting The Office in a grocery store and making it louder doesn't make it funny. The failure Leslie is a transparent rewrite of Michael Scott, a failure trying to succeed in a field he is totally unqualified for that grasps for the approval of those around him. The high school crush of his trying to buy out his store is an equally unoriginal Jan Levinson, the scion of "Corporate", coming down to give him a hard time. And is it any surprise that their relationship is a pathetic one-sided affair? The supporting cast is a trashy group of lower-class failures that love to stand around like idiots and live disgusting lives. Not one of them is close to grabbing sympathy from an audience. Every punchline is a blunt, obvious comment void of any comedic value, suggesting the writers had up to a whole hour to finish the episode. Obvious punchlines and despicable characters may work for Adult Swim's collection of poorly drawn and incoherent plot driven cartoons, but fails miserably for this TBS reject.

I heard of this show on IMDb of all places, and it was on after my Monday night block of heroes and studio 60, so I figured I'd check it out and see how it was. Within 5 minutes, I desperately wanted to change the channel. This is a terrible show. As pointed out by another user perfectly, this show is a cheap copy of the office with a few tweaks and a whole truckload of short-comings. The boss is well-meaning, but completely uncool. His employees only tolerate him because they work for him. Sounds familiar. Oh yeah. Yup, this is Michael from the office, only he's not funny in this show. And the characters aren't something I would care about at all. It's completely unoriginal and very poorly executed. Pass with a vengeance.

10 Items or Less is a wonderful and original, new improv comedy show. The cast all really plays off of each other very well, and the story lines are very creative. I think a series set in a grocery store will make for some very great comedic moments, especially with a cast as funny and talented as this one is. The star, John Lehr, is amazing as Leslie Pool. The writing and directing for this show is also very good. This show is definitely a winner, and one that everyone should see! I would highly recommend this show to anyone out there who loves a great comedy. You will be laughing until your sides hurt! I hope that TBS keeps this show around for a long, long, long time!
