Administrator Toups Posted May 14, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted May 14, 2010 www.nbcumv.com From Oscar and Emmy winner Brian Grazer ("A Beautiful Mind," "Arrested Development"), "Friends With Benefits" is a half-hour comedy revolving around a group of twenty-something singles as they navigate the difficult, and often confusing, world of dating. Ben Weymouth (Ryan Hansen, "Party Down") is on the hunt for the perfect woman who meets his unique set of standards, while his best friend, Sara Maxwell (Danneel Harris, "One Tree Hill"), is just looking for a man to settle down with and raise a family. Ben and Sara have fallen into the habit of turning to each other for moral and physical support as they wait for Mr. and Ms. Right to arrive. Their friend Aaron (Fran Kranz, "Dollhouse"), a romantic at heart, doesn't approve of Ben and Sara's complicated friendship, but he, along with womanizer Hoon (Ian Reed Kesler) and straight shooter Riley (Jessica Lucas, "Cloverfield"), are all distracted with their own dating trials and tribulations. David Nevins ("Lie to Me," "Arrested Development") joins Grazer as executive producer for Imagine Television. Also serving as executive producers are David Dobkin ("Wedding Crashers"), who directs the pilot, writers Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber ("(500) Days of Summer"), and Jeff Kleeman. "Friends With Benefits" is a production of 20th Century Fox Television, Imagine Television and Big Kid Pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted August 20, 2011 Members Share Posted August 20, 2011 Anyone else watching? Obviously NBC had no faith in the show since, as opposed to when it was meant to air, it's being burned off on Fridays in the Summer, but I actually really love it.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted August 30, 2011 Members Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yeah, I think it may already be gone (6 or 8 episodes aired). The past two weren't all that good really, but still better than a lot of what's passed as comedy on network tv the past few years. *edit* apparently the final four episodes will be burned off during the next two Fridays.
