"Men at Work" is a buddy comedy that spotlights the bond four guys have while working together at a magazine and working out problems that arise with one another, their co-workers and women. Funny guy Milo needs help getting back on the saddle after his girlfriend dumps him; photographer Gibbs has earned his ladies' man reputation while snapping shots of models; "pretty boy" Tyler writes celebrity puff pieces and adds a needed sense of style to the group; and Neal is the sweet but nerdy accountant whose longtime girlfriend also happens to be the daughter of the magazine's demanding publisher. Breckin Meyer (TNT's "Franklin & Bash") created the series.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lack of humor and mildly unlikable characters make Men at Work an exercise in how to make a generic sitcom.

Alan Sepinwall HitFix None of Men at Work is funny, but the greater sin is how uninspired it feels. Rated: C- May 24, 2012 Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Rays of charm do break through the haze of the ordinary and obvious. May 24, 2012 Full Review David Hinckley New York Daily News We get that it's tough for people in their 20s as they work out dating and relationships. But no tougher than it is for the rest of us who have to watch sitcoms about it. Rated: 2/5 May 24, 2012 Full Review Randy Dankievitch Processed Media Men at Work will be probably be just a mediocre workplace show with a lot of old jokes and plots, that finds a niche between Family Guy and Big Bang Theory reruns. Feb 21, 2020 Full Review Ethan Alter Television Without Pity This men's magazine-set guy comedy is about as funny as you'd imagine any TBS series not named Cougar Town to be: which is to say, not very. Mar 26, 2013 Full Review Ed Bark Uncle Barky You might not want to have a TV relationship with these guys They're just not much fun on any level. Rated: C- May 24, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Our entire family still thinks this is the funniest sitcoms, with a cast that gels and has great chemistry. We just re-watched all three seasons and it still works. Writing and delivery was on point right until the end. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
