Underemployed is an American comedy-drama television series on MTV.

The series evolves around a group of five fresh graduates who met and became close friends during college.

Initially, each had their big dreams and were very determined to make them happen: Lou wanted to pursue graduate school and eventually become an environmental lawyer; Raviva broke up with Lou to move to Los Angeles in the hope of making it in the music industry; Miles wanted to be a model and the face of Calvin Klein; Sophia wanted to become a writer; and Daphne just wanted to be successful.

[3] On Metacritic, the series scored a 56 based on twelve critic reviews.

[16] The Chicago Tribune said the show needs to offer a lot more than what was served in the first few episodes to compete on the level of Girls on HBO and Workaholics on Comedy Central.
