The Life & Times of Tim

Sometimes it's just curious way some things just work.

The minimalist approach here makes the whole thing breezy and digestible and also more adorable.

The scenarios are genuinely creative and the mixture of live wire characters juxtaposed against smaller than life, Tim, made each episode pretty appealing.

Tim is refreshing as a character. He can be self absorbed and unfastidious perhaps but he is just trying to get by. Life for him isn't something he takes seriously enough to get passionate about but he has to contend with everyone else's issues. If everyone were life Tim we'd probably have no wars but if only some people are life Tim, everyone else would get angry enough to start them.

A dark show, really. I'm usually very averse to shows that think they can just end an episode negatively and call that comedy but I still got a lot out of this.

I don't like the ending of the whole thing but it's the journey not the destination.
