Bored to Death: Season 1

                When you put Jason Schwartzman, Zach Galifinakis and Ted Danson in any show, you know you can count me in.   Heck, I’m willing to give a show a try just based on Jason Schwartzman being involved.

                Bored to Death does not disappoint on any level.   Struggling writer Jonathan Ames (Who helped create the show and is a real dude) has problems after his first book is published and so he puts an ad out on Craigslist as an unlicensed private detective. 

                With Ted Danson as his mentor, George, and Zach Galifinakis as his best friend, Ray, Jason Schwartzman engages in hijinks a plenty as Ames in this comedy that can get pretty vulgar but doesn’t have that much sexuality in it.


                It’s just a straight out funny show and not only what it was I expected it to be in terms of how funny it is, but it even exceeded that level a little bit.   I immediately watched Season Two after I finished this season.
