Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Swag Valance (witness-7) When this program first came out a decade ago, it grew on me as one of the best shows on television at the time. My wife didn't understand what I saw in it, finding Dennis Leary too annoying at first (like a number of his eventual fans). It was funny, it was smart, it pushed the envelope, and it dealt with real subjects and drama on occasion in ways that were genuine and not too preachy nor over-earnest.I was irritated beyond words when ABC canceled it. A few years later I came across Rescue Me, already in its second season, on cable. And as that series progressed, it came to be one of my favorite shows for the very same reasons. And some of the very same cast. And my wife had the chance to let the program grow on her and eventually become one of her favorites.Now, a decade later, I started re-watching DVDs of The Job, and I'm struck by how much "Rescue Me" is almost a cynical response to network television for canceling "The Job". The cast and crew are heavily the same, even down to characters in one later showing up in the other. And instead of playing an addicted, womanizing, Irish New York City cop who is only best at his job -- Rescue Me is a show about an addicted, womanizing, Irish New York City fireman who is only best at his job.The writing and situational comedy is as funny as anything on Rescue Me, and characters like Jan (later Laura Miles on Rescue Me) are fantastic in their roles. About the only thing missing in The Job that distinguishes it from Rescue Me is the natural camaraderie of the firehouse kitchen table scenes -- something that naturally developed after 10 years of many of the same actors, writers, and producers working together.Rescue Me succeeded on cable because it doesn't have the audience share requirements of network television to become an immediate, mass audience hit. But fans of Rescue Me who never watched The Job must see it -- do not pass go -- as the original concept and execution of the very same program.

cirrus700 I watched almost all episodes of The Job and never had a dull moment. You just can't take it as a serious police series, it's pure comedy. And pretty genius comedy. Leary is really good on this. It's just too bad that it got canceled. I really hope a DVD release.

gregka1 The Job is truly the greatest sitcom I have ever seen, ranking right up there with my other favorite, Mr. Bean. The most amazing thing to me is that with an ensemble of 7 main characters, each is equally interesting and talented, yet totally unique. The way the show intertwines their stories helps make the show that much more interesting. So, I implore you to watch it Wednesday nights at 9:30 on ABC and see for yourself.Also, ABC seems to be readying the axe to cancel The Job, so to prevent it, give me an e-mail and I can direct you to the petition to save The Job.

MovieAlien How can anything with Denis Leary be bad? Per chance it has to do with the fact Leary's trademark (the fast talking Irish pottymouth) is short and just a way to garnish flavour in a main plot.(That's how he appears in most films.) "The Job" has no plot or concept, it's just the gazillionth-trillionth buddy-cop TV show and most of the stories don't even work on a humorous or climatic level. Mostly the show is geared by Leary's character as an anti-social cop who seems to cheat on his wife consensually, and the fact it's Denis Leary I would assume he and the writers would find that funny. Is it? Nope. I think the commenters below who revered this idiotic waste of time were just thinking what Denis Leary was thinking as the producer, that because he's in, it is automatically "hilarious".Find something else to watch on weeknights.
