    Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

    Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

    I kept seeing the ads for this show before it started on TV and for some reason I always got the 'boring lame show' vibe. Months later I decided to watch all the movies and shows that Jeremy Sisto was in. I didn't realize Jeremy Sisto was in Suburgatory. I went to watch some short clips online, next thing I know I've watched the entire first season in less than a week, then the second season, next thing I know...this had become my new favorite show!! I love the fact its quirky and funny!! Its sarcastic humor just gets you....well at least it got me. All the characters are amazing and all of them make the show what it is!! It's a shame that no more new episodes have come out and that on season 3, and that Allan isn't seen much :(From someone who's favorite show is f.r.i.e.n.d.s and that 70's show, I didn't expect to get into this show but it was a great surprise!!!

    I like this show -- it's entertaining, interesting, sometimes funny. The premise relates to this hip urban girl who comes to an upper-class suburban area and thinks she's too cool for it all and notices all its flaws. To be sure, she certainly has a point about them being over-privileged and out of touch with the surrounding world's harsher realities, to mention a couple.Here's what took me longer to notice: the girl herself isn't much better than they are. She's a little smarter, a little more insightful, but she has a lot of the same flaws they do. She acts like the smallest inconveniences are the weight of the world on her -- e.g., a girl pays her a hundred bucks to drive her around the block a few times and she she moans, "I hate my job". She's sort of disrespectful to her father, who she calls George,and lives a lifestyle only slightly less entitled than those around her. In short, we're supposed to side with her against the rich snobs and not notice that she's a lot like they are. Sure, that community thinks they're better than others, but she thinks she's better than they are, so how's that any better? Despite this, I like the show.

    I'm usually not a fan of TV series, but I watched a few episodes of "Suburgatory" because Alicia Silverstone have a small part in it. At first I tough it was only glorifying stupidity, especially watching Jane Levy in the role of Tessa Altman who is horribly miscast here, but I decided to continue watching it even if only to see Alicia. Jeremy Sisto is excellent, and he seem to be a very nice guy, but his character have more of a supporting role so it's not enough to make the show pleasant to watch, however I tough they had something... While watching episode two I was trying to find what was wrong with it when I remembered seeing actress Missi Pyle for a few seconds at the beginning of episode one in the role of a waitress, it's evidently the perfect actress to play "Tessa Altman", she would basically being herself... I gave the show a 4, but with the crazy writing and Missi Pyle (real name Andrea Kay Pyle) playing Tessa Altman in my opinion it would become at least a 7, but more probably a 8 or even maybe a 9... Also as I said Jeremy Sisto is very good, but I'm not sure he's the right person to play George Altman, they could at least try adding a touch of craziness by putting actor Jason Gray-Stanford instead, he played the clumsy Lieutenant Disher in the TV series "Monk" but he's capable of playing a more serious character than that...

    As it says, I may spoil some areas of the show. As the reader, just assume this review is full of spoilers of the first episode. A father (George Altman) invades the privacy of his daughter's (Tessa Altman) room and discovers a box of unopened condoms in her dresser and naively assumes that by moving from the big city to the suburbs, that his problems will be over.I had a problem with a few things. 1. He wants to discourage his daughter from being sexually active, and then tries to encourage a more provocative and feminine sense of style once in the suburbs.2. The writers/directors have employed the tiresome tool of trying too hard to create comedy.3. We're supposed to believe that in all of NYC the first time Tessa met a superficial person only interested in looks, was when she moved to the suburbs. Never had she seen such a fake person. All in all, it was a funny show. It has the ability to be the show everyone wants to watch.
