This has to be the funniest show ever. I laughed so hard that I about fell off the couch!
"Wilfred is a half-hour, live-action comedy about "Ryan," a young man struggling unsuccessfully to make his way in the world until he forms a unique friendship with "Wilfred," his neighbor’s canine pet. Everyone else sees Wilfred as just a dog, but Ryan sees a crude and somewhat surly, yet irrepressibly brave and honest, Australian bloke in a cheap dog suit. While leading him through a series of comedic and existential adventures, Wilfred the dog shows Ryan the man how to overcome his fears and joyfully embrace the unpredictability and insanity of the world around him.
Wilfred is based on the critically-acclaimed Australian series of the same title and was adapted for FX by David Zuckerman (Family Guy, American Dad, King of the Hill). Zuckerman also serves as Executive Producer along with Rich Frank, Paul Frank and Jeff Kwatinetz of Prospect Park and Joe Connor and Ken Connor of Renegade, producers of the Australian version of the series. Jason Gann serves as Co-Executive Producer. Co-Executive Producer Randall Einhorn directed the pilot plus nine additional episodes of Wilfred’s first season and Victor Nelli, Jr. directed three. Wilfred is produced by FX Productions. The Australian version of Wilfred was written by Jason Gann and Adam Zwar, directed by Tony Rogers and produced by Jen Livingston."

I watched the first three episodes and found it getting LESS funny and more raunchy for the sake of raunchy than actually trying to be funny. And I'm no prude, but I expect a comedy to at least make me laugh.

The show did seem to slump a little after the first few eps, but last night's got back into the swing of things and I laughed so hard that I could hardly breathe.

NO but I do watch Louie.
That's funny stuff.
The pregnant sister episode was great.

I was amped up for Wilfred but have been disappointed so far. Louie however is my new favorite, can"t miss show (along with Breaking Bad)
This is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on TV. NOT SUITABLE FOR WORK !
