Men at Work (2012)
Heart-Shatteringly Good
I found this show in the wake of How I Met Your Mother ending, and instantly fell in love with it. Breckin Myer is one of my favourite actors since the days of Can't Hardly Wait and Clueless, and Danny Masterson has been a favourite since That 70s Show. The idea of a show where both were involved was very exciting, and it absolutely lived up to the hype I had, and kept me engaged.
The striking thing I found about the series was how believable the characters and their interplay was. The main cast act like the close friends they are, JK Simmons in his recurring role as Neil's boss/girlfriend's father absolutely KILLED IT. The writing on this show was very good, the plot lines were amusing and original (many relating to Milo apparently being based on things that actually happened to one or more of the writers), and I think if it hadn't been cancelled, or had been marketed better (and not been followed by something with the reputation of Big Bang Theory), it may have been the next big one. I rank this show up there with Seinfeld, Friends, That 70s Show and How I Met Your Mother. And after Firefly and Limitless I'd say this is the most upset I ever got about a show cancellation.
