A lot of movies and TV shows have tried to depict the post slacker generation with energy; How to Make It in America may be one that succeeds.

It takes a while to catch on to each characters motivations, and the no frills script doesnt do a lot of hand holding. But by the end of the first epi ..

This show prioritizes its faithfulness to the cultural moment by dramatizing it with uncommon style and a little grace as well.

Youre not going to burst out laughing at anything, but there are plenty of comic moments.

All in all How to Make It had us interested. Primarily because we are in love with Bryan and would watch him do just about anything.

Its like Entourage, but with people who havent made it yet: perfect for anyone young, unemployed and enterprising.

How to Make It in America is slick enough but, in fashion terms, follows a too familiar pattern. Barring a dramatic leap in quality, thats no way for ..

Certainly, this is something of a fairy tale of New York, but it largely hums with an easy and attractive naturalism.

It never feels genuine, just generic. Its so blatantly cut from the same pattern as Entourage, merely made with inferior fabric.

While the series can be funny, it is full of small scenes so finely and yet sharply observed that they resonate for hours afterwards.

The plots, such as they are, have a little more discipline and focus than they did in season 1.
