Excellent and fun show, with repetition.

I am not an avid TV watcher. I prefer to cherry pick the shows i watch (TiVo).

I find The Loop to be an enjoyable comedy. I truly enjoy each character. The job-less brother (Sully), the hot roommates (Lizzy, Piper), the perverse but funny boss (Russ), the receptionist (Darcy), and that old lady that hits on the main character all the time.

I've seen 6 episodes so far, and enjoyed them all.

The one qualm I have is in regard to the seemingly thoughtless plots. Yes, i could and would enjoy a series that always concluded with a young business exec saving the day. But does it always have to be so obvious? And does it always have to be by accident? It almost feels like we are led to believe two controversial characteristics about the same person.

The first is that he is a quick witted, intelligent person, who excelled in school, and is now making it big in the business world.

The contradicting characteristic that is so boldly presented in every episode: You almost feel like he is a retard. He is unable to find solutions by himself, he always has to stumble into the scene and end up looking like he did things on purpose. Which is fine and I loved it, the first two times. Then it can gets annoying, if you let it.

Please mix things up a little, I guess thats the theme of what I have to say.
