You know the saying that third time is a charm, well that is what Breaking In is for Christian Slater because he finally has a show that will make it to a second season.
Breaking In premieres on Fox tonight at 9:30 and you are not going to want to miss this hysterical show. Cameron (Bret Harrison) is a college student in his late 20s who is one of the best hackers in the world. When Contra Security is recruited by the college to find out who has been hacking their system they wind up recruiting him for their team.
Contra Security is not your normal security company. They are not hired to protect you, they are brought in to see if your security systems really work. The staff goes in and attempts to break in to some of the so-called safest places out there.
Contra Security is run by Oz (Slater) and he knows everything about employees because he is watching them all the time…and when I say all the time. Let’s say you will never have a private talk at the watercooler again at your office. Slater plays him so straight and that is why is perfect for the role.
Cash is the office prankster who was recruited after he wouldn’t stop stalking a famous star. You will never guess who? Even though Cash likes to play some really good jokes, he is even better at coming up with gadgets to save the day.
Melanie (Odette Annable) is the company’s safe cracker and Cameron wants to the key to her heart, but that already is taken by her boyfriend played by Michael Rosenbaum. Will the hacker be able to break that code as well as he can any website?
The cast is rounded out by the office douche played by Trevor Moore, who gets an eye raising makeover in the second episode. And Creepy Carol played by Jennifer Irwin, who is only getting mentioned because I loved her on Still Standing.
But I what I really love is Breaking In, that is not your ordinary office comedy…it is so good you will want to work there. So tune into Fox tonight and every Wednesday at 930 for a show that cracks your Hump Day safe shows! Seriously this show is addictive as when you try to open lock and you forgot the combination!!!
