Although there's no truth to the rumor that "Glory Daze" was first titled "That '80s Show," the comedy series hearkens back to the misadventures of a group of friends on an Indiana college campus in 1986. Brian is a jock looking to emerge from his father's shadow; Eli portrays himself as a ladies man but is actually a virgin; Jason is a conservative who idolizes his preppy girlfriend; and Joel is a serious pre-med student whose focus is derailed when he meets the class beauty, Christie. Together, on their own for the first time, the guys navigate college life in a fraternity, a journey that will surely produce a lifetime of memories.
Glory Daze — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

A middling retread of Animal House-style college comedies, Glory Daze is notably short on interesting characters and original jokes.

It's not bad enough for me to get worked up about its ineptitude, but its creative laziness and unapologetically derivative trappings make it impossible to endorse. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com 11/16/2010
2.5/5
The characters are decisively vanilla, unmemorable and vaguely rendered. Go to Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 11/16/2010
Whatever surprise or delight... from its jests and situations will be best appreciated by viewers who have somehow managed not to see any ofthose [fraternity] films, or any of the many films that copied them, or possibly any films whatsoever.

This is an Animal House for all seasons, not to mention as generic an hour-long comedy as you'll find on any network this year. Though not a totally unfunny one. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
