Purely Joyful Movie!

Just perfect...

Good concept, poorly executed.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I had to comment on this show simply to boost it's undeserved 3 stars it was getting. It's rare Canadian shows can deliver and especially compare with US big budget shows but somehow Billable hours works.Its fun bittersweet corky jokes get quick laughs yet are just valid enough so that office workers can somehow relate to their context. Characters still seem very shallow (even for lawyers!) so i don't know how long this series will last but slowly over the years i hope through twists of events (romance, good friend bad friend..., new hires...) some development will take place.Overall, if The Office and Scrubs had a Canadian Torontonian baby this show would be it... for better or worse :)

This show has been unnecessarily slammed, the average of a 3.5 / 10 rating is truly not doing this show justice. The latest season was truly hilarious with witty writing and timely snide comments that really make this show unique. I hope that previous postings and poor user ratings to not impact your decision to catch a few shows. Agreeably the sense of humor that this show brings to television may not be for everybody, but you'll have to admit - this series really takes "Political Un-correct" to a new level.9/10 for me on Billable hours. I hope that Showcase continues to run this show and continues to add new seasons.

This show is hilarious for any modern office worker.I trust it will become a classic like the movie 'Office Space'.It's funny yet true how little actual work gets done, in our modern automated economy. They debate such things as parking spots, ghost e-mails, other pranks, and office chairs.Especially for lawyers, who get associates to do all the work, then mark it up and charge you $500 per hour.Those 'critics' that don't like this show likely never worked in an office before.(or more likely never worked before.)

I've watched three episodes and have to wonder how did a show this bad get made? Showcase deserves credit for Trailer Park Boys but this show is just really awful.The humour is kind of like the office but does not work, the stories and jokes are so stupid. The episode I just watched had the main character spouting Star Wars lines through the whole show for no reason leaving me to wonder "was any of that supposed to be funny, cause it wasn't." Honestly I can't think of one character in this show that I like and it is a combination of bad actors and bad writing for the characters. The only character I like at all is the tall yuppy guy who can actually give his lines without making me want to turn the channel but I'm never watching this show again anyway.Give this show a chance but I'm sure most people won't like it, it was unbelievably bad.
