Workaholics Unanimous
By AKARI IBURI | Apr. 11, 2011When the worlds of illegal drugs, poop dollars, and fresh-outta-college troublemakers collide with corporate cubicles, the universe gives birth to Workaholics, a new Comedy Central show that airs Wednesday nights at 10:30 p.m. Spawning from the corruptively creative minds of Mail Order Comedy's Blake Anderson, Adam Devine, Anders "Ders" Holm, and Kyle Newacheck, Workaholics is a scripted comedy series about three friends living together, working hard, and, more importantly, playing hard in the cruel realm of telemarketing. The show features characters named Blake, Adam and Ders, each played by themselves, and is directed by Newacheck and Chris Koch (Modern Family). Though the friends struggle with their drab jobs to put beer on the dinner table, they still manage to spread chaos and wreak havoc among those around them and have a blast while doing so. The chemistry between the cast members is impeccable, and, after being friends and comedic accomplices for over seven years, their calculated understanding of one another's humor is obvious. On a conference call, the jokesters described their inspiration for the show, what it took to get on TV, and what viewers can expect.
