If you're looking for a fun, enjoyable stoner comedy, this is a great show, three best friends living together and just getting up to random shenanigans, supported with a great cast of actors, 7 great seasons and could have easily continued.

I don't write many reviews on IMDb but I thought I'd give my 2 cents on Workaholics. I'd always known about this show and seen commercials for it on Comedy Central but I never actually sat down and watched it. That was until several years ago while flying across country and having nothing to do on the airplane... they had basic cable for everyone with little televisions in front of each passengers seat, so needless to say the only thing to do to kill time was find something on cable. I switched to Comedy Central and noticed that Workaholics was playing a marathon of episodes so I decided to give it a shot. I was hooked within the first couple episodes! I'll admit the humor is kind of juvenile but it's also pretty clever and very, very funny. I love the countless references they make. The show is about 3 telemarketers (Anders, Blake and Adam) who all live and work together in California. They are stoners, slackers, alcoholics and most importantly very funny! If you haven't seen this show yet it is currently streaming all seasons on Hulu right now (March 30th, 2020) so get on there and binge watch while you still can! Highly recommended. I don't watch many tv shows or sitcoms so for me to be such a huge fan definitely says a lot. Two thumbs way up!!

I avoided watching this because I thought it was going to be something completely different to what it actually is.

As a result I missed out on the tight butthole.

Funny, Irreverent, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Workaholics is the type of show that you need to watch multiple times to get all of the jokes. It is sneaky smart, in that it seems dumb as hell at first, but the more you watch it the more you understand how smart these guys are. The later episodes haven't been as good as they have gotten further away from the office drop-back, however the writing remains sharp and it's obvious the guys don't give a f*ck, which makes it hard to critique them too harshly. Overall, it is a relaxing piece of humor that is easy to share a beer and a laugh with over and over. Thankk gawd CC picked up a 4th and 5th season.

Irreverent to everything, including itself, this show takes a light look at the harsh reality for most 20somethings. (like when they're wondering how they're going to get clean urine when everyone their age smokes pot. Word, right?) It's refreshing, constantly funny and well-acted. With three slackers as the main characters, it's nice to see each one slack in their own style, be it uptight, mellow or on the edge. (ders, blake and adam). I'd have to agree with other reviewers that I hope Adam tones down the funny-cuz-im-loud aspect. He does it well, and it's usually funny, but it won't be quickly. I get the fratboy lifestyle mocking though.

By the way, austin312's review is clearly an SEO for the show.

This show is hilarious. The Office, Entourage and 30 Rock have all jumped the shark, and I thought Sunny was getting close until last season, which was stronger than the previous. A few years ago, I found television to be ripe with great comedies, but just recently I was noticing that Curb and Sunny were about the only two that I found hilarious on a consistent basis. But Workaholics surprised me, it really seemed to come out of nowhere. And I'm so glad to hear that they are already writing for season 2. Awesome news.

Everyone has their own unique sense of humor, but I don't see how you could be a young person and not find this funny.

At first I wasn't paying attention to this show and thought it wasn't funny. Boy was I wrong. I like simple effective concepts for shows. You take 3 goofballs who like to make bad puns, pump themselves up, and not take life very seriously and you've got a great show. Jillian is hilarious how tough she is and how shes like one of the guys. The 90s references are spot on from hip hop catch phrases, old rap lines, video games, tmnt they are spot on. I hope this show is on the air for many years. There's been a ton of times where I did exactly what they did on the show, ie when they were arguing over who would be which ninja turtle (everyone wants to be leonardo or mike and no one wants donatello) the outbursts adam has are also really funny. This is a very strong comedy if you can appreciate drug humor, bad puns, and being juvenile. Its a super relateable show if you are a goofball.

This show is absolutely hilarious! Blake is the funniest dude on the show, he even looks funny. Along with the other reviewer, I signed up at IMDb here specifically to dispute the review shown on the front page, what do the Brits know about humor anyway? This show is definitely geared toward working class stoners of which there are certainly no shortage. Put your preconceptions aside and just enjoy the senseless humor that this group offers in every episode. Part of why this show is so appealing to me is because I have been in this exact same position, working as a telemarketer, getting stoned everyday, living with a bunch of crazy roommates. This is a comedy show that stays true to real life situations that real people go through and puts a humorous spin on life and friendship. If you don't think the poop dollar is hilarious, you should rethink what you find funny.

I have to applaud Comedy Central, not because this show is particularly great but rather because they put shows like this on the air. It's not as funny as Man Bites Dog, Halfway House, Issues, etc but it is still funny and worth watching. By Comedy Central putting on shows like this, funny people out there actually have an obtainable goal if they want to have a go at getting a show made. Had BBC3 not aired The Office perhaps Ricky Gervais would be a plumber instead of a comedian. I guess my point is that this show isn't paint by the numbers, slick camera shots and laugh tracks. It's one of those shows that takes elements of guys you know and amps them up. Not quite to pro wrestling levels but probably a bit higher than you'd see in real life. It's fun though and you won't walk away feeling as if someone just insulted your intelligence. You never know, one of these young guys could end up being the next big funny man. Lay off the network shows for a week and check this show out.

I've always loved juvenile humor. I can't help it, it's the sense of humor I was born with. But Workaholics has some of the absolute funniest scenes in TV today. In a world overpopulated with lawyer and cop dramas, Workaholics helps to break the mold and bring fresh air into the comedy television series world. The three characters all play so well together it's as if they were all real-life brothers. Unfortunately I haven't seen them in anything other than Workaholics, and it would be a shame if their careers didn't skyrocket into the big screen, but if you're looking for a hilarious sit-down comedy to watch this is it. Just don't let your kids watch, as it can be quite raunchy at times.

"Workaholics" is a show that really shouldn't work as well as it does. The show is extremely juvenile, stupid, vulgar, and occasionally very unrealistic. Under normal circumstances, these would be criticisms. However, thanks to the three main stars of the series, these qualities make the series oddly endearing. Anders Holm, Adam DeVine, and Blake Anderson are probably not going to be given Emmy Awards for their performances any time in the near future, but what they do on a weekly basis is often funnier and more off-the-wall than anything else on television. There have been several shows about twenty-something guys just hanging out, a fact that "Workaholics" is well aware of and satirizes from time to time. What separates "Workaholics" from all those other "bro" type shows is that "Workaholics" isn't afraid to go to extremely dumb places. In fact, during its best episodes, "Workaholics" is the definition of inspired stupidity. The writers throw so many jokes and references in each 21-minute episode that even if one episode isn't very good, there's always still a number of solid laughs. Miraculously, no matter how dumb the characters may act, the main trio almost always remains likable even if the characters are presented as a bit too naive or stupid at times. Over the past four seasons, "Workaholics" has remained consistently hilarious, something that can't be said for most comedies on television. The show may start to suffer some problems once the characters get older, though for right now the series remains perfectly entertaining for what it is. 8/10

Alright so this show is hysterical I'm not here to deny that but sometimes and don't take this the wrong way but it kind of gets annoying to watch.I say this because sometimes the characters get so unbelievably stupid that its hard to watch. Now sometimes this stupidity can be pulled off like in "Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia" they seem to pull of stupidity with a charm that keeps me watching. But i just feel like the way that this show is written and the way that the characters behave just makes this stupidity come off as annoying and hard to watch. I love the actors but i don't know sometimes they just make me not want to watch the show by the way that they act but that is the only real flaw that i can find with this incredibly funny show. That's why i gave it a 7-10.

Like most new comedies it took me an episode or two to really get into this although I did like it enough from the first episode to watch more. Like most half hour comedies as the characters develop it gets better and better but where so many new comedies seem to fall down this one doesn't. The show doesn't focus too much on character development which allows the jokes to flow freely and fools you in to developing an interest in the characters, like a good comedy should. I probably enjoy it a little more than some might because Anders, that is Ders with a 'Hard-An' reminds me of a friend of mine at work.

The show is pretty fresh and whilst the teens and twenty somethings will probably be the target audience I think older people (probably not those approaching retirement) will still be able to enjoy this show for what it is - a half hour comedy show that keeps you laughing in the genre of a twenty something/stoner comedy.

A story about 3 young college dropouts who share a house and work at the same company as telemarketer, their life consists of marijuana, booze, work related problem and pranks between them.

I can't remember when was the last time I laugh so hard to a movie / TV series, but this workaholics guys really pulled it off, their comedy is so fresh and just funny. I am 37 years old and honestly it's kinda too young for me, but having passed that phase in my life, I could totally relate to the story they're bringing.

Just finished the season 1, I hope the season 2 and 3 will be just as good.

1. Workaholics 2. Chappelle's Show 3. Anthony Jeselnik/ Daniel Tosh material.

Some folks may find this to be blasphemous, but as a straight up comedy TV show, Workaholics is the best that Comedy Central ever made.

Chappelle couldn't and still can't get past race and racial topics. His material has turned into preaching, but that doesn't stop his self-righteous bull from tearing down other groups of people - most recently homosexuality.

The other 2 speak for themselves. :)

Check out Workaholics if you haven't. They really find their stride in the 3rd season.

This is the show I watch whenever I'm feeling crappy, sick, heartache, whatever. Even when I'm feeling awful it always makes me laugh out loud. The characters, stories, punchlines, filmography (yes it's got great filmography), all of it really makes me feel like life is just a joke and everything is meant to be enjoyed and nothing should be taken too seriously.

This show is on par with Always Sunny, and I've probably watched the series half a dozen times and I laugh out loud on every single episode. It's absurdist comedy but has very original comedic stories that I've yet to see mirrored in other shows, even ones that are excellent low-brow comedy (which this certainly is).

When I read some reviews on here from people that don't like this show or that don't think it is funny at all I'm already sure that I wouldn't get along with those narrow-minded folks. That kind of stuck up people are the people to avoid when you go out and want to have a bit of fun. This show is just really funny and all the characters play their role brilliantly. Adam, Blake and Anders, three friends living and working together, trying to avoid work as much as possible and partying as much as possible. The jokes are all about drugs, sex, parties etc. Or all the good stuff in other words. If I was young again I certainly would hangout with them. Brilliant show!

I still rewatch episodes just because this show makes me feel good!

Wow! Was a surprised it took me this long to watch this series. Every single episode is non-stop laughing..Script is great, jokes are great, acting is great...Just off the wall stuff going on every second. Highly recommended!

This show is what it is. If you think a new take on the three stooges is something you could get into then this show is what you are looking for. It's not going to blow you away with dialog but if you like stoner jokes and beer farts look no further.

I'd say, judging by the user rating, that this is one of those "you-get-it-or-you-don't" shows. I personally don't see how this would be not funny. This is definitely fresh material. Here you have the lives of three just-out-of-college roommates, working together in a call center, having parties, pulling pranks, taking drugs. Livin' the dream.

I think that the target audience is twenty-something recent college graduates, in entry-level positions. Not unlike the content on Adult Swim, or the situational comedy of Peep Show. But, definitely with a college American flavor. I can relate. If you are not in that phase where you still live like you are in college, then go watch something else.

Not bad-coming up with a funny sitcom to watch seems to be like climbing K2 (currently Sunny is the only really funny one) so considering the competition this one gets a 7 for sure. The best episodes seem to be the ones where the focus is taken off the three leads-who are basically tiring after a while-especially the little guy-an example is the motivational speaker episode.

I am honestly so surprised by all the reviews over like a 7 and the fact this show has an 8.1 overall is wild. The show isn't terrible by any means but it's so incredibly hit or miss. Some episodes being the absolute worst while others are pretty decent. Even within episodes, some scenes are just unwatchable. I do really like the 3 main actors having seen them in other stuff but honestly the 3 main characters are pretty awful. 90% of the time they are so incredibly stupid, it's hard to watch. Stupid funny can definitely work, it's worked for many other shows and movies. But there is a thing as going too stupid and these guys consistently do it. They also are frequently cowards for lack of a better word, too often are they getting punked by every person they encounter. You really can't have main characters be huge idiots and cowards, how is the average person supposed to relate to them in anyway. They are also usually awful people, to each other and other people. Always sunny seems to be able to pull this off in a way that works but workaholics just doesn't. I basically forced myself to watch every episode hoping there would more better episodes than terrible ones. I even fast forwarded a few times through the particularly awful scenes. I'm just so blown away by how many people say this is the best comedy out there. So average at best.
