One of my most favorite shows this summer is FX’s Wilfred. As a huge animal lover (I have two dogs and a cat!), I think it would be amazing if I could see my dog the way Ryan (Elijah Wood) see’s his neighbors pup Wilfred (Jason Gann)!
For those of you who have yet to tune in, let me get you up to speed. Ryan is a depressed individual who tries to commit suicide via pill overdose as the series begins. Much to his chagrin, he wakes up after his attempt fails but soon realizes he is not the same person.
He can somehow see his neighbor Jenna’s (Fiona Gubelmann) dog as a human being dressed in a canine costume. Throughout the pilot episode, we learn a few things.
1. His sister gave him some bogus sugar pills hence the reason he is still alive.
2. He is the only one that can see Wilfred as a human/doggy hybrid.
Ryan observes as Wilfred does typical dog things like dig holes, chase squirrels, and going after
their angry neighbor Spencer (played by a super slim Ethan Suplee!) as he speeds by on a motorcycle. At the same time he also likes smoking pot, Matt Damon films, and getting his buddy Ryan into trouble!
This Thursday at 10 pm kicks off episode three entitled, Fear where Ryan finally learns why Wilfred planted his wallet at the scene of the crime, when Spencer comes around seeking vengeance.
