Set in the offices of Pickering Industries, the show revolves around technical writer Andy and his office friends, Jessica, Byron, Keith, and Wendy. Through his narration, Andy's fertile mind frequently plays out outlandish and hilarious versions of what he is telling us, before settling on the true account of what happened. He also has occasional conversations with Mr. Pickering, the long-dead company founder who pops up in Andy's mind to degrade him.

  Andy Richter Controls The Universe, A Smart, Funny, Well Thought Out Comedy That Is Another Prime Example That FOX Never Seems To Know When It Has Struck Sitcom Gold And Scraps All Of It's Good Shows That Never Get A Chance To Shine. The Show Mainly Consists Of Andy A Smart Aspiring Writer Who Works For A Large Soulless Company Where He Writes Manuals For The Products They Sell. This Show Only Aired 19 Episodes And Was Canceled Midway Through Season Two. Though This Show Involved The Typical Sitcom Plots It Separated Itself With It's Smart, Witty Sense Of Humor And It's Cast Of Quirky Characters.

  A very funny series that was ready an willing to make fun of itself and trid not to take anything seriously hide « show »

  This show was over before its time. Right from the beginning the show was making fun of itself. I love shows that don't take themselves seriously. It was full of rediculous scenarios and outrageous events. The characters were a collection of eccentric individuals who made just about anyone else look sane by comparison. They complimented eachother's quirks and personalities. It was funny to see how they tried to stay sane in this crazy world. The fact that sometimes the events being told were completely made up made finding out the truth even more entertaining. And the sometimes it was hard to decide wether the truth or the story was more rediculous. This show really was something different from everything else that was on at the time. It relly deserved more than it was give.

  Comedy that goes as far, if not further, as any good creative comedy should go. Vivid fantasies, witty humor, and best of all - Andy Richter! hide « show »

  This show is like watching the funniest Attention Deficit Disorder comedy show you could ever imagine. It makes every scene memorable and hilarious, because if it lagged for more than 10 seconds at a time, even the show would have gotten bored with itself. Andy keeps the jokes coming, the hilarity flowing, and fights to keep the viewer on his side of the argument and does - no matter how much you wouldn't think you could. And whatever he can't do, his supporting cast certainly can; business-minded Jessica, overly-handsome Keith, young-and-naive Wendy, and neurotic Byron. Watch one episode - ANY episode - and odds are good you'll find at least one joke or quote that will make its way into your everyday life and keep you laughing at how true-to-life the show truly was.
  
  Perhaps someday they'll bring it back. Or at least re-air some old episodes for those who never had the chance to see it in action.

  Long live Conans old Sidekick! hide « show »

  I will sum this up quickly. Andy Richter Controls The Universe is a [BLEEP]ing funny show that Fox didnt give a chance. It would deffinintely be better than War at Home or whatever crap theyre airing now. Andy Richter is hillarius and Fox needs to step up and figure out what is good on their network, or they will wind up like WB and UPN in September......

  One of the funniest sitcoms ever. Makes me laugh out loud even upon repeat viewings. hide « show »

  Hysterically funny. I agree with the previous reviewer that it's "Scrubs" in an office, what with the fantasy sequences, talented cast -- especially Paget Brewster, who's as funny as she is gorgeous -- and sharp writing. C'mon, Paramount, give us the DVD set already! It's only 19 episodes. I'll buy two, I promise.
