Ken Tucker

Finally, a clever new sitcom. [17 Mar 2006, p.108]

Verne Gay

Yes, "The Loop's" a winner, although let us be the first to admit that the usual attributes associated with "winning" are probably stretched beyond all recognition in this context. Read full review

James Poniewozik

If the writing can rise to [Harrison's and Hall's] performances, The Loop could take flight. Read full review

Mike McDaniel

A crude comedy filled with frat-boy humor. Read full review

There are some very funny lines and moments... Unfortunately, the good stuff isn't worth slogging through the rest of this sitcom. Read full review

Brian Lowry

The show basically approximates that commercial where a young guy is working an office job and his dorky friends keep bugging him, as a generic twentysomething dude seeks to prove he can straddle adult obligations and youthful pastimes by partying all night and working all day. Sorry, but been there, drank that. Read full review

Tim Goodman

The first season was wobbly, but the second is absolute brilliance. Writing is fantastic; this show deserves to become a hit!
