Wonderful character development!

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This was a clever show with mature sense of humor. The main problem with it is that there wasn't a spark; I mean, the kind of sensation that makes a difference between regular shows and great shows that pass to history.The actors who played the principal characters were not that funny except for Seth Green who always comes and gives the best performance.The situations were kind of funny but were uncomfortable at some points. Still I would recommend it for those who are tired of the humor brought in pop-American shows.I also don't think it would've last for more than two seasons.

I know the show's been over for a while. Not to mention the last post here was some time back. However, I still cannot believe Four Kings was canceled. My only question is why. The characters Barry, Ben, Bobby and Jason are all great parts. We especially liked Barry and Bobby. They were funny. We liked Barry for seeming not to trust his friend's intentions of hooking him up with a girl. And we liked Bobby for playing a softhearted and seemingly dimwitted character. Both my husband and I enjoyed this show. The two of us don't usually agree on television. However, this one was very funny. I'm sort of sad to see it's gone. So many other shows need to be axed, but not this one.

Although the laughs were somewhat scarce, and the scripts a little under-developed, the chemistry within the cast was undeniable. I have to admit, that while this was not a "Seinfeld" or "The Office", for the first season of a new comedy, this was a showpiece that NBC hadn't had for a long time. This show actually showed promise. Unlike "The War at Home", which for some reason is still running, this was a tasteful, relatively smart comedy. For whatever reason, the only TV success Seth Green has had, is "Family Guy", which miraculously made its return only a short while ago. Everyone was cast well in their parts, and they were all believable as friends. Frankly, this show had some potential, and I can't recommend you watch it, because there's absolutely no point. However, I wish this show had stuck around a little longer, because it deserved to.

I realize that if NBC pulls "Four Kings" after a short run, it won't be one of a few. But I have to disagree with the harsh review. I just saw "Elephant in the Room" and I thought that the jokes were pretty unremarkable, but the acting and the plot really stood out. Bonus points to the creators for making an interesting opening title--its artistic but not too long. The actors have chemistry, which pulls them through some of the more mundane dialog.Some shows (espcially sitcoms) can make you feel like you've just wasted 30 min watching nothing. For "Four Kings," you know you've just wasted 30 min, and you're proud of it.
