Wilfred: The Complete First Season DVD Review



Synopsis: You'll sit up and beg for more of Wilfred, the most hilarious and daringly original new comedy on TV. Elijah Wood stars as Ryan, a down-on-his-luck lawyer who forms a unique friendship with his sexy neighbor's pet pooch "Wilfred." Everyone else sees a dog, but Ryan sees a bong-ripping, beer-chugging, foul-mouthed Australian bloke in a furry suit (played by the outrageously funny Jason Gann.) By unleashing the surly, sweet and always adventurous Wilfred, Ryan may just learn to stand on his own hind legs and embrace the insanity of real life.

Review: When I see new shows I'm often skeptical...and when I see a remake show brought over from another country and "Americanized" I'm rock bottom uninterested.  Thankfully, I gave Wilfred a chance, and the only reason that I did is that Elijah Wood was cast in the lead.  Wilfred is actually played by the same actor that played him overseas in Australia, which was a great idea.  The show, about a man and his imaginary and obscene dog-friend.   The show runs on FX and is wildly hilarious.  Loved every moment of it and I'm really looking forward to season two.  One high point..a supporting role by "My Name is Earl" alum Ethan Suplee as the ultra-aggressive and inappropriate neighbor. 

Interest Range: TV Show, Dark Comedy
