    Starts so well, the cast seem well balanced from the start. The first series by far one of the nerdiest geekfests I have seen for ages and I loved it. If you like comedy that goes bang bang bang, this ones for you. So many references to sci fi done in so many really clever and obvious ways. I must admit It took me a while to get to grips with series two. The new cast members and the dynamics they bring didn't quite work at first for me, but it does improve.Quite frankly the last episode had me in pain laughing so much I watched it again due to missing so much due to my own laughter. I hope this helps. NB to fully appreciate this series you need to love purile, fun, comedy with loads of sci fi references. Being a bit nerdy might almost help, Enjoy!

    The "8" scale is only applicable if the two new female actresses are eliminated. They have turned a clever, witty show into a half-hour of two hens cackling about nothing of interest to viewers who have waited so-o-o-o long for Slater to return. We come to this show for him. He needs no help to entertain, and the two "new" female additions to the cast have ripped any entertainment value from this show. Slater's style has been missed in the media arena for too long. It's professionalism. sarcastic wit, along with his bedeviling smile can turn 30 minutes into a treat you only wish to repeat. The two new cast members are taking the script down to the level of a half hour of brainless and aimless TV chatter that tries to cover the absence of the original engaging and entertaining story line. RESTORE it to its former Slater Glory!...Please?

    Man, some of these negative reviews are too funny. This is a quick witted show and has a lot of potential. It appears to be written well and has a great looking cast that play the parts well. Wile some of the reviews are comparing "Breaking In" to shows like "Big Bang Theory" .. i don't think they really compare. BBT is a a funny show, well written and well played. so the technical side of "Breaking In" isn't perfect.. u i have had more than a few laugh-out-loud moments. Christian Slater may be the big name here.. but this shows stars are really in the supporting cast. It's funny, light-hearted, and fun to watch. I have all but given up on network TV but I'll be watching this one.

    I don't find Breaking In to be as funny as some of the other reviewers. Don't worry there's no spoilers since there's nothing to talk about. There are cheap gags and bad jokes but the one thing that makes me shun the show is the stiff, unoriginal characters. I usually love a premise like this but I just found myself comparing to Leverage the whole time. The cast has the same kind 'team' origin as Leverage (i.e the Mastermind and Hacker) but seemingly one dimensional. I found myself bored with Cameron, annoyed with Cash and the rest of the team; the only person that was worth staying tuned in for is Christian Slater. Actually he was the only reason why I checked it out. I would recommend the show if you enjoy...I don't know actually. Sorry to be harsh but it is truly terrible...My advice, go find Leverage it's 10x funnier.
