It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Seriously this show still holds up extremely well...One of the funniest animated shows of all time...my personal favorite over all the classics like simpsons, south park, family guy, aqua teen, archer, rick and morty, American dad etc. those shows are all great but this show doesn't have to try at all and the sarcasm is a 100 ft deep, love it. Sad it got canned...People don't appreciate good humor....... .......... ..................... .............. ........................... ........................ ................................................. ............................................ .........................

When i first started watching this show i started at the beginning of the 3rd season and i was kind of lost. Why is that you might ask? Well it's because on top of all the hilarious situations that Tim gets himself into they all tie together into a great story. I believe the terrible animation actually adds to the humour of the show. Honestly though when a show is this funny i could care less about a story line but since they included it it is a fantastic compliment to a hilarious show. If you are age 16-30 i would highly recommend this to you (although women might not like the humour used in this show) and i pray that this show does not get cancelled cause I NEED MORE LIFE AND TIMES OF TIM!!!!!!!!!!!!

This show is different, thats for sure. It lacks the slap stick humor your used to when watching a cartoon. And you have to actually watch the show to understand it. Typical cartoons jump from scene to scene without really relating to one another. Don't turn it on in the middle of the show and expect to enjoy it like you would a Family Guy because you will have no idea what Tim is talking about. Its on HBO and it is only 30 min long with two 15 min sketches, so it's easy to miss a lot. So do yourself a favor and watch it from the start.Tim always seems to find himself in awkward scenarios. Usually because he puts his foot in his mouth. He has good intentions and is a smart guy but is always surrounded by stupid people who misinterpret him.Don't expect too much from this show visually. The art looks like it came straight out of a comic strip. I won't say this show is for smart people, but it definitely calls for a different type of sense of humor. It's no Simpsons, but it's not trying to be.

The Life and Times of Tim features just that; the day-to-day life of an ordinary 25 year old New Yorker, trying to talk his way out of horribly embarrassing situations. Tim really has the worst luck, and his dry, dead-pan excuses are the centre piece of this show.I urge you to watch just one story (there are two per episode) as you'll be hooked. The writing is very good. It's a little surreal how things could go so badly but it lends to hilarious situations and dialogue.Give it a chance, like Arrested Development, it won't be appreciated en masse during it's run.With so many animations that are faltering in great humour (I rarely laugh out loud the Simpsons, Family Guy or American Dad any more - South Park still does the business from time to time) This show had me laughing really hard a few times per episode.I've gotten everyone I've shown "Tim" to into the show, which is actually saying a lot. I really hope it gets a second season at least.Enjoy watching!
