    an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

    a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

    This show is absolutely wonderful, one of my favorite shows to watch when I'm sick from school or have down time. My only regret is that it was canceled after 30 episodes! I have been a fan of the comics and books by Scott Adams (if you like this show, I recommend to you "Stick to Drawing Comics Monkey Brain", a compilation of his funniest random works), and I was delighted when I saw this show on Netflix. At first I was skeptical if it would follow most other TV shows based on newspaper cartoons (or in other words suck), but after a few episodes I was sucked in, I enjoyed the funny and creative plot in each episode, and quickly raced through all thirty episodes. Props to Scott Adams and crew for writing, producing, and creating such a great representation of Dilbert for the small screen!

    Matt Groening's "The Simpsons" was pioneering in virtually everything it did, and as a result has become the most revered and successful animated sitcom ever (and really the first, in their modern form). But it wasn't long before the industry attempted to duplicate that success, and the results were a mixed bag: the sheer horror of "Beavis and Butt-head," followed by the unpretentious hilarity of "King of the Hill"; the rise of the ingenious "Futurama" virtually twin to the advent of the insidious "Family Guy." "Dilbert," based on the beloved comic strip by Scott Adams, is one of the better shows (even if it didn't last long). The dialog is snappy and smart, the animation what you'd expect, the characters voiced with real talent, and the stories as funny as they are far-fetched. Dilbert speaks for all disillusioned cubicle dwellers, but the concept works equally well as metaphor. You don't have to have a tedious white-collar job to admire the wit and sarcasm of Adams and his TV cohorts. High points of the series include the trips to Elbonia, Dogbert's evil scheming, and any episode heavily involving Alice. The low point: the guest appearance by Jerry Seinfeld. I will *never* get that voice out of my head. Never.

    I just recently had the opportunity to watch Dilbert. My brother came home with the DVD Collection. It took me about a week to watch all 30 episodes but I was hooked from the very first one.When I was about to start high school, I applied to a special business high school and got in. But turned them down to go to regular high school with my peers. For years since I was so grateful that I decided not to go to that business school, I didn't want a office job when I got older, I didn't want a 9 to 5. But after watching Dilbert, I'm craving that experience. That life seems so exciting for some strange reason. So now coincidently I had made up my mind to be a Public Administration major before the show and its Cubical life and opted out. I'm so happy that I found Dilbert. Its weird but I look forward to it.Well my brother left, and took the collection with him. So I, on Sunday, scoured my newspaper and found the comics, searched for Dilbert and ripped it out. It's now hanging on my wall. I love the humor of Dilbert because its so honest. But my favorite thing of all is the opening sequence, it took me a while to figure it out, but Dilbert is what we become in life.I'll treasure my Dilbert learning experience for life.

    I am a big fan of the comic strip, and I thought that the show would be just like the comic, but, alas, I was partially wrong. On one hand, the show is downright funny; no use in denying that. On the other hand, some of the humor found in the show is a bit...well, something you wouldn't find in the Sunday comics. I wouldn't go as far as to say"adult", so let's say that the show rating would be PG-13.Don't get me wrong, though. I think that the show faithfully follows the show. In short, you'll like the show if you can stand some of the humor that pops out sometimes, and the opening sequence is impressive. It's a sigh of relief to know that Dilbert and Dogbert have mouths after all.
