Well, contrary to the person in the first inappropriate and unneeded comment, I happen to LOVE this show. The writing, acting and everything else with this show is almost correct. The chemistry all of the actors have is simply amazing. (Though I would like to see tag's character do a little bit more.) And the last thing that I would have to say is that the writing is far more realistic in the fact that they all use curse words in their everyday conversations, just like the youth and young adults, and practically everyone else, of today do. I really love this show and am hoping for at LEAST 3 seasons! Also, it is needed to let everyone out there know that I want ever so badly to be a television writer, but have been to lazy and barely completed a script. But, after last nights episode of Billable Hours, I have found what was missing from myself to go all out and build my portfolio: passion. See, before watching last nights episode, I had all of these ideas in my head, but again there is the laziness. After watching the episode, I went to bed @ 11, and got up @ 12 am and wrote for an hour. So, in conclusion, I say watch Billable Hours, and please, PLEASE go into it with an open mind so hopefully you will be able to enjoy and fall in love with it like I and all of my roomies have.
Peace!
Peace!
Anyone who has ever worked in an office environment will enjoy it.
When I began watching the series, I wasn't too sure how it would be. I was expecting slapstick, or something slow.. it's based in Toronto.. so I wasn't expecting it to be too funny. I was pleasantly surprised. The cast works, the stories are quick and funny.
If you've seen other shows, like The Office (BBC or NBC), or Office Space, those were kind of dry compared to the humor in this show. I felt right at home. Like I want to work there. :) There is only one rule in a fire, save the Beer! My wife, who chuckles from time to time, had a few bursts of laughter during this show. She likes it because it's not slapstick, its humor.
It's one I look forward to picking up on DVD. I look forward to watching more episodes.

This show has been unnecessarily slammed, the average of a 3.5 / 10 rating is truly not doing this show justice. The latest season was truly hilarious with witty writing and timely snide comments that really make this show unique. I hope that previous postings and poor user ratings to not impact your decision to catch a few shows. Agreeably the sense of humor that this show brings to television may not be for everybody, but you'll have to admit - this series really takes "Political Un-correct" to a new level.
9/10 for me on Billable hours. I hope that Showcase continues to run this show and continues to add new seasons.

I love the directing and the writing in this series. It's very eccentric, wry humour that only certain people can appreciate.
The characters are wonderful, the witty dialog is what makes this show tick.
There is some blunt and lowbrow humour in this; not much worse than family guy and if you respect the characters you'll really get the humour.
I can't stop laughing when I watch this show and I highly recommend that you watch it; it also dissects society today in great scenes like "sensitivity training" when the facilitator says that handicapped is a derogatory word.
If you like family guy then you'll love this.
