I Just Want My Pants Back is easily the channel's best effort since plunging into the scripted business, a smart and funny look at a group adept at orchestrating hookups but with few genuine connections. Read full review

It opens into a fairly entertaining ensemble show about beautiful, bright people. Read full review

They're a bit too cute. Yet behind all the hipster wordplay, the characters are strangely charming. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Matt Roush

While not quite as inspired as last year's breakthrough comedy Awkward, MTV's Pants appears to have legs. Read full review

Some of this show is funny, but you may want to put paper down on your couch to keep you from catching an STD. Read full review

The laughs are here, some a little on the cheap side, but no more often than cheap laughs pop up in real life. Otherwise, by early indications, Pants makes us care about its characters. Read full review

Going into it, I didn't know what the title meant, but as the episode progressed, it became more and more clear... he just wants his pants back. It was a VERY entertaining and enjoyable episode that was vaguely reminiscent of the brilliantly funny and entertaining MTV animated comedy 'Downtown', which was tragically canceled after a mere 13 episodes. I loved the pilot of this series, and I look forward to more!!! :)… Expand

Fun, sexy, doesn't take itself to seriously. Easy viewing. Not going to win any awards... but I really enjoy the characters and living on a shoe-string humour.

On the bright side, It's exactly what the producers wanted. It's just like the twenty something kids I went to art school with (as a returning student). Unfortunately, twenty somethings aren't even interesting to each other, let alone anyone else.. seriously, mtv, hipsters just wantOn the bright side, It's exactly what the producers wanted. It's just like the twenty something kids I went to art school with (as a returning student). Unfortunately, twenty somethings aren't even interesting to each other, let alone anyone else.. seriously, mtv, hipsters just want desperately to fit in without without looking like it's the only thing they think about, and that's not enough meat to hang a show on. There's a reason that shows about life before being forced to join the ranks of the working class, and shows about desperately wanting out of it after getting your fill work better. Because everything that happens in the between time is largely forgettable. I wouldn't ask any of these people how their day went for fear they might actually tell me, so I definitely don't want to spend time watching it. I only tuned in because the title sounded fun. Tuning out now.… Expand
