Admirable film.

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 think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This show was terrible. I can't believe the high votes and rave reviews here. The only people I know who watched it also hated it like me... anyway the show is long gone but I didn't like it.

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 :)

Seeing as quality Canadian TV shows are an utter rarity (comedies being no exception)one has to appreciate the extraordinary quality of this show. It rivals even the biggest budget American comedies and surpasses many in both outright hilarity and uniqueness. Each of the characters are so uniquely absurd but only marginally outside the realm of believability.The clever allusions to real life Toronto events (the opening events of S2E1 is based on a real occurrence). The main characters complete and utter amorality becomes such an endearing trait that I've come to wish I had more friends that would mess with me on a daily basis (to keep things interesting). The dark comedy with it's sensitive subjects and pervasive ennui made this show a hilariously endearing one.

I love the directing and the writing in this series. It's very eccentric, wry humour that only certain people can appreciate.The characters are wonderful, the witty dialog is what makes this show tick.There is some blunt and lowbrow humour in this; not much worse than family guy and if you respect the characters you'll really get the humour.I can't stop laughing when I watch this show and I highly recommend that you watch it; it also dissects society today in great scenes like "sensitivity training" when the facilitator says that handicapped is a derogatory word.If you like family guy then you'll love this.
