The Life & Times of Tim

San Francisco ChronicleTim Goodman

The Life & Times of Tim--is flat-out brilliant and easily one of the funniest newcomers to television.

SlateTroy Patterson

The show gets under the skin, somehow, with its loose Web-clip vibe and looser philosophy of life.

New York PostLinda Stasi

The Life & Times of Tim, their new, offbeat, animated series, is one that works like crazy--and no, it doesn't hurt to be crazy to love this show.

VarietyBrian Lowry

Tim's world is so consistently outlandish as to be difficult to resist, especially since Dildarian plays the whole thing with the understatement of Bob Newhart's old phone routines.

Newark Star-LedgerAlan Sepinwall

The jokes that do hit on "Life and Times of Tim" suggest that Dildarian might be onto something really good if given time to fix the slow spots.

The opening episodes are uneven but show a lot of potential.

Pittsburgh Post-GazetteRob Owen

Sophomoric and crude, The Life & Times of Tim may be a viable alternative for fans of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.

Los Angeles TimesRobert Lloyd

I didn't find much of it funny, but on a kind of purely analytical level I can see how the jokes are supposed to work, and might well work on some.

TV GuideMatt Roush

The animation is primitive, and so is the straining-to-be-hip writing in this deadpan sitcom.

Miami HeraldGlenn Garvin

This is sporadically funny, but Tim is too slight -- the back-to-back episodes are only 10 to 12 minutes long -- and relies way too much on the supposed shock value of cartoon characters uttering four-letter words to be consistently entertaining.

Boston GlobeMatthew Gilbert

The animated comedy, which premieres on HBO tomorrow at 11 after Little Britain USA, is unnecessarily slow and slack.

Chicago TribuneMaureen Ryan

The animation is rudimentary and the jokes aren’t much better.

SalonHeather Havrilesky

The Life & Times of Tim isn't even as well written as that show, and it's far more amateurish and deeply, alarmingly stupid to boot.
