Review of Wilfred

Wilfred (2011–2014)
3/10
Nice concept, but silly and boring
27 July 2011
After so many good reviews, I tried to watch it. I was getting bored by episode 2 and even getting border by episode 5 that I couldn't finish it.

I admit the idea of a human-dog is both funny and daring. But film is not only about idea. It must have the ability to convince its viewer to enter its world --no matter how absurd the constructed world is.

And I think Wilfred failed to do that.

The more episodes I watch, the more I feel annoyed by this series. Wilfred was often too patronizing. He was more like a zen-master and less like a dog. The more Wilfred talked sophisticated, the more I feel this series was at its lowest quality.

Wilfred is only funny when he behaves like a dog, which he seldom does.

Maybe I am cynic and unable to open my mind?

Well I did ask myself that question. But the more I tried to perceive the absurd world of Ryand-Wilfred, the more I realize how stupid this series are.
