"I think Business Inc offers the audience a much-needed comedic escape for 15 minutes an episode. The real world can seem so serious, and this show is the opposite," said Kimberley Wells, director and co-creator of Business Inc. "The tone is very tongue-in-cheek, absurd, each episode is jam-packed with jokes that benefit from repeat viewings. It's fun. And it showcases the best of what Toronto has to offer as far as talent and diversity. We're proud we were able to make such an ambitious and unique project with limited resources. And that ultimately comes down to all the incredible people we had working on it."

"Business Inc manages to pack in a lot of comedy send-ups in each short episode of the series. Whether they're riffing on infomercials, music videos, or soap opera melodrama, each scene suggests the cast had a blast creating the show together," says Michael O'Farrell, CEO at onVIVA.tv and Board Director at the Foundation for Canadian Comedy (CANCOM).
