The Loop Audience Reviews

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
boaz-4 As i've watched the entire series. Not to mention I'm very disappointed after the changes they made to season 2 - where have the cool sexy roommates have gone? And way too much Airline and not enough wacky roommate fun, not to mention he should have got a new car. All the while I've had a very weird sense of deja-vu. I've seen this before. AFAIK it was a movie, which had most of the story elements of the first season. Can't remember which movie this was, and I don't think i've seen the series before. Anyone knows which movie i'm referring to? Because I'm pretty sure its totally based on a movie, a detail i can't find in any of the shows promotional materials.
Brad Eleven I couldn't get enough of this when it first showed up. I can see how some people wouldn't like it, see it as predictable, etc. For me, it yielded at least one screaming fit of laughter per episode. I thought it was gone. Found it again the other night, and ... where'd the rest of the cast go--did FOX downsize the show??It's still pretty funny, and I'm glad it's still being aired, but the only reason it's still on my TiVo is because of Philip Baker Hall. I literally passed food through my nose in the episode where he came walking in doing the Atlanta Braves' "tomahawk chop." It's the tiny moments that still make it great. As others have said, the plot is fairly predictable; it's in the way the script is played by the cast. Kind of like going to see a play that you studied in school: You know what's going to happen, so the execution is all that's left. This cast gets it right, over and over. I'm not giving up on it yet. And, yeah, I get paid to work in a corporate office, so I appreciate the satire.Oh, well... it's not the first time FOX has tarnished something that was working perfectly well. Perhaps other FOX shows should take The Simpsons' approach: Declare openly that notes from executives will be ignored, and usually made fun of.That's the thing about television: We're not the customers--the advertisers are.
sfvcyco The lead character is a good actor and very funny. He was great on Grounded For Life.For the people trashing this show, get another latte and get the stick out of your a$$ (even though you are probably enjoying it). This show is not meant to be taken seriously.You talk bad about this show because it has dumb comedy that is very predictable and has girls that are very attractive but cant act. No show can ever survive that has that, right? Well, I remember a little show that had all of the above named Married With Children, but I guess that show wasn't very successful. (I hope you can feel the sarcasm)
poulosm I don't want to give any spoilers but this is the funniest show I've seen in a while. The entire cast is hilarious. The "Release the Beast" or ranch episode had me rolling on the floor. Mimi Rogers plays a sexually aggressive middle aged female executive and it seems to me the only time she opens her beautiful mouth is to deliver some of the best one liners on TV. Philip Baker Hall's character is awesome. I loved it when he was attacked by the dog. I'm not sure where I've seen Sully before but he and the entire cast are top notch. This show has a Scrubs like way for pulling away and injecting comments for explanation or effect. I love the theme song and all the music in the show is fantastic. It's hard to believe this show is so polished at such an early stage. I have DirecTivo and I watch each episode at least 3 times.
