Default Wilfred

Anyone planning on watching the series premier of Wildred on FX tonight? I have been looking forward to the premier for quite some time now. For those who dont know, here is the synopsis straight from the show's website:

Wilfred is a half-hour, live-action comedy about "Ryan," a young man struggling unsuccessfully to make his way in the world until he forms a unique friendship with "Wilfred," his neighbor’s canine pet. Everyone else sees Wilfred as just a dog, but Ryan sees a crude and somewhat surly, yet irrepressibly brave and honest, Australian bloke in a cheap dog suit. While leading him through a series of comedic and existential adventures, Wilfred the dog shows Ryan the man how to overcome his fears and joyfully embrace the unpredictability and insanity of the world around him.

Pretty excited about this show, I hope its as good as the previews make it seem. Its on tonight at 10 btw. Sorry about the plug, lol.

Pretty funny show I think. They didnt hammer the point at you that he is a dog which is good. Plenty of time in future episodes for funny quirks about dogs. Like how when he went to sit on Ryans couch he spun around 3 times before deciding to sit. I lol'ed at that. And the holes he dug in his back yard, yet he used a shovel, lol. I think the show will be more situational comedy than only being about the guy being a dog.

I ended up recording it too. I had to wake up at around 0345 today so I didn't stay up too late.

Saw it last night - definitely an interesting show that I'll keep watching for the time being.

Its a remake of an Australian or British show.
