Andrei D Tight, smart, and fun Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/03/23 Full Review Sandye K I love this show the cast is great and the writers are great. I was left in TEARS for a solid 3 min with the prom episode KEN MARINO is hilarious... And Jane Lynch what a gem she is..All 3 seasons are definitely going on repeat for me .... need a 4th season Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Brian S Lizzy Caplin and Martin Starr are wasting their talent. Everyone else involved in this show should be doing catering instead of acting, writing, directing or producing television shows. And, any reviewer giving this boring, unfunny tripe more than a star should stop writing reviews. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/13/23 Full Review Corey W Boasting an all-star cast and some excellent comedic writing, Party Down tells the story of a catering company staffed with Hollywood hopefuls, each more delusional than the next. Each actor or writer despises their job as they believe it to be beneath them as they wait for their big breaks. Couple this with a Party Down team leader, played uproariously by Ken Marino, who takes the job way too seriously and you have a top-tier workplace comedy that barely feels like a workplace at all. Adam Scott and Lizzy Caplan are the heart of the show as the only two in the cast with any Hollywood promise. Their 'will they won't they' energy drives the little plot that the show contains, but when each episode is a different catering event a plot is of little necessity. Joined by the likes of Martin Starr, Jane Lynch, Kristen Bell, and Megan Mullaly, and so many more Party Down manages to generate a ton of laughs amid the chaos found at each private event. It manages two commentaries simultaneously: one about the misgivings of the Hollywood industry and one about the lavishness of the independently wealthy who reside in southern California. It all culminates in a sort of jealous frustration that fuels most of the comedy. When the cast don their trademark pink bowties viewers are in for a treat. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Dee E Not funny at all...just really stupid and boring. Bad acting and terrible script seems like all the actors are reading from q-cards with one-liner stale jokes.
