Quote:
A drifting young man named Ryan (Elijah Wood) is asked to watch his neighbor’s dog, Wilfred—who looks like a dog to everyone else but appears as a man (Jason Gann) in a dog suit to Ryan—in the opener of this live-action comedy, which is adapted from an Australian series and also starred Gann as wisecracking and pot-smoking Wilfred. Ryan could use a pick-me-up: He’s supposed to begin a boring job and he just attempted suicide.

Perfect example of why Some American TV is rubbish
Why would you take a very funny tv show that is made in Australia and remake it with US actors? I really can't think of anything more disrespectful, it's not like they're speaking a different language, it's English. No doubt it will be word for word the same as the Australian version just with different actors poorly portraying the Aussie style of humour. There have been numerous shows that have tried this and failed miserably (UK ones as well). The only show that has managed to do this successfully is The Office, and that only came into it's own when it stopped copying the english series and went its own way. Why can't the US just show the original Australian version????

I liked it. It was weird and I don't know where it's going, but it's different and a bit strange.
I agree. I felt it was a bit underwhelming but the very last frame kinda provided a spark that made me want to watch more. When Laurentiu calls something crap its also usually a sign of quality
