I think every show has their ups and downs, especially newer shows where the characters are still being worked out and developed. However, I do enjoy the mindlessness and humor of this show and I hope it sticks around for a bit. The writing is just strange sometimes, but I think that's why I like it. It's a pretty quick show for the most part and doesn't really spend too much time on "feel good" plot lines that often plague comedies trying to be taken somewhat seriously (Hello? How I Met Your Mother!) with heavy romantic plotlines or just completely boring characters. On a side note, I do love HIMYM - Neil Patrick Harris makes that show.

The Loop is a little weird. But so am I.

It may not be great but Mimi Rogers is hot.

I like The Loop quite a bit, actually. I'm not going to disagree with your opinion of the show, because taste is subjective and all. I do have a question though. If you really don't like this show, why is it assigned to you to do the recaps? Is there nobody on the tvsquad team that likes it? And if the site is going to go with a negative vibe, maybe someone can fill in for Ryan for a week and put the boots to LOST...

i agree with #1, it's something that you dont see in every other sitcom...which doesn't necissarily make it bad. for the most part i think its a pretty good show, something i cant really say for 90% of the comedies on air these days

Based on your overall preferences as garnered from previous posts I'm a bit surprised that you're so down on this show. It's a nice thoughtless break to take from dramas or comedies that make you think. Isn't there room on television for something like this? It has its Conan O'Brien-like moments of humor and sure its just vulgar jokes but that doesn't mean it's not funny. I'd rather have this on the air than the uber-traditional sitcoms with oft-repeated themes.
