If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

View MoreThis show is pretty bad. The story lines seem pretty flimsy, the humour is mostly cringe worthy, and all the characters are irrational and unrealistic. It is a shame, because most of the actors are hot (with the exception of Lou) and the acting itself isn't terrible.This could be a decent show, but as it stands it just seems like yet another desperate attempt by MTV to appeal to us 20-somethings feeling sorry for ourselves because 'lifes so hard'. It certainly falls short of that for me, but I can see it being a hit with kids who are fresh out of high school and expecting life to be all 'friends forever' and are gullible enough to believe that two adults and a baby can afford a 2 bedroom loft apartment on 1 salary.I'm really surprised this crap came from the same person who produced Six Feet Under, because comparatively, this is a load of (not totally unwatchable, but still stinky) garbage.
View MoreUnderemployed is one of the best shows i have ever seen on MTV. To me it looks quit realistic, because being underemployed is a very big problem here in Australia and maybe other countries too.. Sophia struggles with her sexuality and Lou and Reveva with raising Rosemary. At the same time Miles and Daphne are starting to like each other more then just friends, which usually happens if you end up being roommates with your best mate.It's also really cool that everything got filmed in Chicago. In other TV shows they always show people it took place in LA but it actually got place in like NY or something... This makes it more realistic, to give people a real look on how it is to live in Chicago when you are underemployed.I really really really like this show and i am definitely hoping there will be a next season! Please MTV, make sure there will be a SEASON 2!!!
View MoreThis week i saw on Mtv commercial for Underemployed show...Three days ago i downloaded it and now i just watched the last episode and all i can say is: I Loove it^^ I really love it because it's set it today's economy and it's not like some other shows where the economy is almost always good,so that gave me that feeling...There are 5 best friends which are our/my age, and when i watched the show, i got that feeling like i was a part of their group... ^^ they are having fun, but they are also trying to make money and start their lives, which gave me some inspiration... All i can say...I recommend this show and i hope there will be a season 2^^
View MoreUnderemployed - is the first show that made me post a review -that's how bad it is ) The series follows daily routine of a group of lowlifes. Very poorly directed and even worse acted out. A bunch of spiteful remarks, made by some of the characters certainly do not add charm to it. Just another one in a series of many others banal and ignorant MTV products with pretty easily recognizable target audience. I still have no idea what made me watch the first two episodes. I guess, I just wanted to be objective and fair to the show. So feel free to watch it as well and make up your own mind, but be ready to just waste another 40 minutes of your life.
