The take

Ted Danson, Zach Galifianakis, Jason Schwartzman, and many others star in this three-season comedy that aired between 2009 and 2011.

Jonathan is a bored and lonely writer in New York, his girlfriend having recently left him for smoking too much pot (he would quit but “quitting cold turkey is dangerous”. To fight the boredom, Jonathan decides to list himself on Craigslist as a private detective.

Jonathan’s adventures in his newfound profession are wrapped in a lighthearted and easy comedy format - making Bored to Death the perfect no-brainer to watch after a busy day.

Comments

Hysterical!! One memorable funny line is when Jason’s character meets a woman named Lakshmi – he says, “I know how to pronounce Lakshmi.” This is in obvious reference to the NPR broadcaster Lakshmi Singh who, if you are a New Yorker, you hear every hour on the hour for NPR news…… OK it’s an inside joke but I found it hilarious and I got it. Very clever writing and plots. Zach and Ted are LOL funny. LOL!!! Binge this and enjoy =)
