Please don't spend money on this.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Cooper Barrett does nothing new in the 2010s of single-camera 20- something to 30-something bachelor sitcoms. It's venturing in a sea of canceled shows, finished shows and currently airing shows that have more to offer than it. Cooper Barrett represents a skeleton of a great show where the writing just isn't good enough. The show could really use some sharper, funnier writing. The jokes aren't hitting that well consistently, the show is so close to being funny, because the style of comedy in this show is right up my alley. The cast is fine, but they lack the pizazz, the flare and true symmetry of a cast from let's say, New Girl or Don't Trust the B----, and Don't Trust the B- --- is not that much better than Cooper but what it has is sharper timing on jokes and better delivery.Cooper Barrett himself is probably the lowest point of the show, and that's not terrible since he's just dull and not intolerable, however he seems like a Nickelodeon sitcom teen grown up and given his own show, he's generic in the sense that he ends up attracting most of the attractive side characters in the show and he looks good, but his interests and personality is nothing unique enough to write home about.Cooper Barrett is just enjoyable enough for me to finish watching the first season and I'm genuinely curious if the show falling short was just due to the show not having enough time to truly find it's groove or if the cast/writing wasn't up to par.

What's wrong with all the people who complain about writing and acting? The acting is perfect and there are no plot holes. As it's said at the beginning of the episode, the characters are going into troubles that may appear in every man life and they go from bad to worse. The result is really funny and sometimes, emotional as well. But in the end, they fix everything and warn people about overreacting in an entertaining way. They have fun and learn about life, and so do you if you watch it. Don't listen to the haters. This show has everything that a sitcom should have. It's funny, with nice characters and realistic situations in a teen life. Watch it and come back here to fix it's rating so this show will have a better chance despite all the haters :D

The concept isn't terrible, a few of the jokes are decent, and the acting is all over the place. What is really sad is that this show has no ideas. Every week they just get in ridiculous amount of trouble that any normal person would find a way to avoid, and they've already been repeating themselves halfway through the first season. For example, in the pilot episode, Cooper and his buddies have their TV stolen. They track it down to a house where some sketchy guys live and try to steal it back, but Cooper gets caught and kidnapped. In exchange for getting Cooper back, they have to give the guys an expensive brand new TV. A few episodes later, Cooper gets his phone stolen. They track it down to a sorority house where a party is going on. Cooper's brother is in his brand-new SUV and encounters the teenagers who stole the phone. They steal his clothes and set his new SUV on fire. There are some small differences, but these two episodes are almost exactly the same plot. In fact, if you break it down, almost every episode has a similar story arc. You can expect at some point in every episode they're going to tick off a dangerous person and either end up running for their lives or getting punched in the face. In fact, in the episode that's on right now they just ticked off their landlord and he shot a hole in the ceiling.

In the style of too many FOX sit-coms to count (some successful, some not) this one stands out for the fact that it has the same formula (outsider/goofball talking to the camera & giving voice-overs throughout, bumbling side-kicks, token non-threatening black friend and fast-paced editing) but goes to show how bad this formula is when you don't add good actors and writers as part of the variables. Not since "Sons of Tucson" have I seen something so painfully bad from FOX that it makes me wonder whose favor was called in to get this on the air. In sum, this show will be lucky if it outlives the time it takes me to hit "submit" for this article to when it goes live.
