    Don't watch it while you eat!

    This show is not meant for these who seriously believe what others think because there are a lot of exaggerated stereotypes. Few gross things in the show are true about guys , but only guys like me.

    For those who don't watch p*** , you are going to learn a lot of new words. But don't worry its not too late just open "urbandictionary.com" for all the inappropriate words you might encounter while watching the show.

    And about no eating , I strictly recommend not to eat while watching this show because there are lot of long humorous scenes. I mean if you can hold food in mouth for like 60 seconds and start munching again then its fine. Rest of you people will die if you eat while watching this. STOP reading more comments just watch the show now.

    Funny and gross

    Well yeah it is gross. It is also funny and fairly original. Each episode is not quite what I think it will be. That alone is fantastic for me.

    When I read the original synopsis a dozen different ideas went through my head of funny anecdotes that I have seen dozens of time before on many, many shows. I was relieved to see they had some original ideas or at least original spins on old ideas. What I am saying is that the humour is not done to death. so even if your an avid TV watcher you should get a few laughs.

    The characters are well developed each with their own style and humour. I hope they stay that way as many series characters tend to blend into one character with different bodies.

    This show is simply hilarious

    If you're looking for smart, subtle humor like The Office, then you're looking in the wrong direction. Testees is a crude, absurd, and downright disgusting laugh riot that will make you feel absolutely dirty after watching it.

    The pilot was better than I expected so I watched the episode the week after, and I swear to you, I have never laughed as hard and as loud as I did that night. Never has a show just thrown all their cards on the table like Testees has done. It's not to say that Testees is pure gross out humor, it does have it's subtle humorous moments, but when they go for a laugh, they don't pull any punches.

    It's the perfect compliment for It's Always Sunny.

    Brilliant, hilarious, unique new series!!

    I'm so glad to see I'm not the only person who absolutely loves this show! I love the quick witty dialogue and the casting is perfect. It's been a while since I've been pushed to tears from laughing so incredibly hard..brilliant stuff. It's definitely crude and gross at times, but that's what makes the show so funny. I really can't see how this show's content would offend anybody any more than some of the other things I regularly see on television. I really hope FX keeps this show for at least a few more seasons! Unfortunately, I've been seeing way too many unique and amazing shows being canceled entirely too soon, barely getting a chance to make it through its first season... Testees is honestly one of the funniest things on TV right now, in my opinion. I hope it sticks around for awhile!

    The funniest show since Malcolm in the Middle!

    This feel good and laugh out loud comedy is exactly what I've been waiting for since Malcolm in the Middle finished in 2006. Testees made me laugh so hard, that I started crying. Especially the episodes "Jellybean Omlett" and "Uber Glued" were hilarious.

    This show is crazy and completely implausible - which is a perfect recipe for endless fun. At times the humor can be a bit too much for family viewing so I recommend you watch the show before you are going to view it with your family - otherwise you might feel a little awkward with your kids.

    But otherwise Testees is a well paced show with 2 brilliant actors with good comedic timing. And I really hope this show will produce many seasons of laugh out loud comedy!!!!
