Somehow these gifted Party Downers have combined utopian dreams with merciless satire, and not shorted either one.

Underlying the caustic observations about Tinseltown superficiality is a genuine understanding of the combination of hope and bitterness that comes with unrewarded talent.

Party Down's appeal lies in its acute understanding of actors as insecure extroverts, writers as bashful narcissists, and unfulfilled artists of all types as quick-draw cynics.

All of the characters are misfits, and the pleasure of Party Down is watching the actors riff off one another as they go to extremes.

The combination of talented, clever writers mixed with a group of humorous and fairly underrated actors has given me another excuse to call up my cable provider and subscribe to Starz.

One of the best TV pilots ever produced.

"Party Down" is the far superior series to that watered down and tarted up Dr. Katz.

Party Down is definitely worth more than a look.

A very funny series that any cable channel would be lucky to have.

Even with its more foolish characters, the show makes a case-comical but still resonant-that underneath the ill-fitting button-down caterer's shirts and pink elastic-band bow ties are real people.
