Dan A gave it a10:
The funniest sit-com ever created and a show that ended way too early. Every character has some bizarre and humorous issue that persists to be explored at their expense. Every episode was fresh and funny. A previous poster, James J, you said AD was a decent show but then gave it a ZERO rating. How does "decent" translate into a zero you trollriffic moron?!?

R S gave it a10:
The funniest TV show of all time, even funnier than Curb You Enthusiasm, Seinfeld, the Office (British version), and Fawlty Towers. C'MON!

Nick G gave it a10:
This must be the best and funniest show ever created. Definitely deserves universal acclaim.

Avery C gave it a3:
Imagine reading a script. It wouldn't be funny. Imagine hanging out with or dating any of the characters, you'd be either bored or horrified. People claim that this show is highly intelligent, but that's the illusion of all satire. Satire, because, by definition, it's critical, oppositional, aloof, always seems bright and clever, even when it very much isn't. The social satire of Martin Amis and Oscar Wilde is brilliant, but the writers for AD simply aren't in the same league as Amis or Wilde. I've never met someone with an Ivy League degree (or even any serious graduate degree) who likes this show. I should say that while I enjoy Bateman, I think Cross and Arnett are two of the most annoying people on the planet. I dislike the phenomenon of this show because it's not praised as being enjoyable or funny, but for being intelligent, which it isn't. Whenever I meet someone who love sthis show, I think "that person hates rich people and beautiful people. That person simplistically equates intelligence with the portrayal of life as fundamentally nihilistic and unfair." AD is a show for people who can't get laid , who suck at sports, and who aren't smart enough to get Oscar Wilde.

Ethan W gave it a9:
An undeniably hilarious show, with great acting, character development, and an interesting plot that leaves room for an interesting portrayal of greed, irresponsibility, and self-centered behavior. Very entertaining, although i gave it a 9 just because some jokes aren't funny. Still, this show could go on a very wrong time since the producers keep the show going in the right direction. And James J is a moron; he gave no reason as to why it's a 0 and usually decent means 4-6.
