Office Joe

Review for Office Joe

I'm not saying Office Joe saved me from spiraling further into my existential crisis, but it did keep me glued to the couch long enough for my family to eventually give up on trying to get me to engage in human interaction. As I binged the entire season in one sitting, ignoring my child's pleas for help with math homework and my partner's attempts at meaningful conversation, I realized Office Joe might be the most relatable thing I've seen since I looked in the mirror this morning.

The protagonist? A lovable disaster. The plot? A mix of mundane office politics and just enough chaos to keep you questioning your own sanity. The humor? Darker than my soul at 3 a.m. When I couldn't stop watching "just one more episode." Honestly, the show's knack for turning crippling mediocrity into comedy gold was so spot-on, I started questioning if my own life was just a poorly written script.

Season 2 can't come soon enough. Who needs family time when I've got Joe awkwardly navigating office drama? My kid will figure out fractions eventually, right?

Great show and hilarious examples of how difficult the career transition can be. I love all of the hilarious cameos of veteran stars and personalities. It shows that even though it seems like it's all alone out there as a veteran and this gives you a great laugh. I know that there's people out there that will say oh it's lowbrow comedy and inappropriate jokes but in all actuality it really is like that. It also shows that even with a small budget that a show can be great even without big Hollywood names. Also given a chance and more support this series would be able to grow and thrive. Another thing to anyone that dislikes this review I am a veteran who 1000 percent understands the struggle Joe is going through.

Office Joe is a hilarious look into the world of transitioning from one phase of life to another, specifically from the military to a civilian job. The overarching themes and lessons can be applied to any other sort of life transition, too.

Suzy Palmisciano absolutely nails her acting debut, and a host of other well-known actors in the veteran space including Vincent "Rocco" Vargas, Mary Dague, Tim Kennedy, Jarred Taylor, and Hollywood Heard are joined by an excellently-casted group of actors to keep the show funny and lively. Very funny overall.

It's well worth checking out and I can't wait for a season two!
