    Loaded does exhibit its share of heart, but as for brains, well, it could use a few more of them.

    After watching the first four episodes, the protagonists still seem defined more by what they do or possess than by their actual personalities, which is a problem. Another problem for a show that leans more toward comedy than drama: Loaded often strains to get laughs, although those do come a bit more easily as the episodes progress.

    The ultimate result is a series that feels like a loose collection of sketches in the lives of people who have come into extravagant wealth unexpectedly.

    It’s hard to call Loaded a bad series per se, but it’s a pretty un-involving one.

    The humor is mushy, mostly based on the characters’ being neurotic. Unlike “Silicon Valley,” there is little at stake in many of the situations in Loaded, which undercuts it further. The series is kind of like a cat-game app. It might amuse you for a while, but it’s still a cat-game app.
