Review of Betas

Betas (2013–2014)
7/10
Underrated Programming
23 December 2013
I don't watch TV or Movies to point out plot or theme devices and whether they are worthy or unworthy of my attention. I have a very simple guide to my viewing enjoyment, relatable characters and unless its sci-fi, realistic circumstances and overall programming has to entertain me.

Betas has all three aspects. The relationship between Trey and Nash is really fun to watch unfold. Nash being the number guys who wants to be seen as more than just that. Trey acting like his big brother but at the same time wants to be the next Steve Jobs. Hobbes is great as the train wreck who you can't help but love. Overall, the entire cast has a really nice chemistry.

The show is miscast somewhat as a comedy though. It's written similar to Entourage, a show with comedic moments but that can also be serious as this group tries to evolve from startup to success business. I am not sure this show will get more love from Amazon or a second season but it's a pretty good show that is very watchable and has a lot of entertaining moments. It might take more than one episode but the characters alone will keep you coming back for more.
