Good concept, poorly executed.
Doomtomylo
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Keeley Coleman
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Slipping under the radar over the course of its three season run, The Life and Times of Tim never gained the attention many feel it deserves. Its sitcom setup and plot structure lend perfectly to the shows dry humour. Despite being fully animated, the show does not tend to stretch the boundaries of realism. It instead uses its animation helps to distance it from other animated shows and even live-action sitcoms. The show is perhaps able to be viewed as the animated counterpart of fellow HBO show Curb Your Enthusiasm. The creation of the show was handled by Steve Dildarian, who also provides the voice for the titular character. Tim's friend Stu is voiced by Nick Kroll (The League, Kroll Show), who portrays the simpleton character with ease. The show also boasts some well-known guest stars over its duration. Included guest voices are Bob Odenkirk (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul), Elliott Gould (M*A*S*H, Friends), Aziz Ansari (Masters of None, Parks and Recreation) and Billy Dee Williams (Star Wars Episodes IV-VI, Batman (1989)). Although the show is not entirely ground breaking, it does have enough comedic substance to entertain viewers and even bring it above many other similar shows, especially animated. The writing helps provide an unconventional dialogue along with its dry and subtle humour. The humour of the show is perhaps the reason behind why it never achieved the mainstream popularity that it so well deserves. All factors of the show work well with each other and culminate to become a fantastic and fun show, provided you can handle the rough and rigid animation. While it may bore some viewers and throw them off, it is all round a fantastic show with great jokes, albeit very dry. It is at least worth a watch to test the waters, the first episode or two would provide a necessary base of what to expect throughout the series.

So in Australia SBS is the channel with weird-as sit on late at night, IE; A cartoon about a lady bus-driver who sucks every passengers...yeah.Anyway I was bored, it was 11:30 at night, and this show came on, I watched from the beginning, the show looked shaky at best, less than a minute in I was chuckling, it then turned into non-stop laughs for me, by the time I had recovered from one hilarious section, another hit me, I couldn't stop laughing, it was hilarious, the combination of terrible situations combined with dry humor/sarcasm at the ridiculousness of the situation makes this a great combination. It's like when your friend crashes his car, get's out and says "Well this is good."10/10 Very dry, very original, very funny.

"The Life & Times of Tim," created by Steve Dildarian, is another show about a twenty-something New Yorker working at a monolithic corporation and just trying to get by without totally embarrassing himself.Except this show is totally hilarious."Tim" is sort of like an animated version of those "The Most Awkward Boy in the World" comedy sketches (starring Zach Woods, now of "The Office" fame)... somehow, no matter what Tim does (or doesn't do), it's gonna get pretty uncomfortable. And incredibly funny. Just in the first season Tim somehow gets cornered into fighting an old man, and taking his boss's daughter to her senior prom.The animation is a little... simple, like something you might come across on Newgrounds, but don't let that dissuade you. This is a cartoon in which the characters wear different outfits (but still have a consistent wardrobe/style), and one that has many little background details never mentioned, but that are sincerely pause-worthy, such as little posters and reminders hung up on the cubicles at Tim's work, or a sign on the wall of an AA meeting - a picture of a person "losing their lunch" in a toilet, with the caption, "You Need Help." There is also continuity between episodes, recurring characters, notable guest stars (Tony Hale, Trevor Moore, Lizzy Caplan, Cheri Oteri, Jeff Garlin, Bob Saget...), references to Wes Anderson and "Felicity," and many, many hilarious jokes."Tim" could be criticized for its use of vulgar situations (and language), but none of it is used gratuitously, or without creativity and originality. Vulgar? Yes. Tasteless, lewd, or uncouth? Hell no. A prime example is an alcoholic priest, a recurring character, and in the age of parish sex scandals, a skewed version of a new kind of archetype. Yet "Tim" does not use this character as a chance for a cheap shot at religious institutions. No, the priest's "wild" antics instead just lead to more opportunities for Tim to have to deal with awkwardness and embarrassment - what the show is about.

The only reason I even signed up and got a user profile on IMDb was so I could spread the word about this show. It is truly one of the funniest and most entertaining shows I've ever seen. WATCH IT!! Not only is it extremely funny, but the story line sucks you in. Each show consists of two fifteen minute segments and within a 30 seconds, the story completely draws you in. My wife said that the show is akin to an animated version of Curb Your Enthusiasm and she's right! The voices fit the characters perfectly and each charter is developed in a very believable way. I can't recommend this show enough!! Check it out! As far as animated shows, it blows South Park and Family Guy out of the water.
