Ah, thank God there is finally a show worth watching lately. It's smart, clever and witty - those who came before and gave this 1 out of 10 stars (Well, just one of you) probably logged off Hulu to go and watch the next SpongeBob SquarePants release.
This is dark, not too dark, but it just works. Ireland, misty clouds, grey skies but in this series it's always blue skies and sunshine- especially when our protagonist is out and about. That smile, that wry grin when Elvira realizes she has to continue... it gives me goosebumps. I love it. I want more.
This series re-designs whatever genre you found it in, and I love that. The comedy is dark, the drama is light, the stories are believable. These are the crazy stories that could befall any one of us. Misfortune bound out of human weakness, the failed attempts to fix them. Every one of the main characters has stuffed up and for that we can relate to each of them. They are human and make human mistakes with incredible consequences. Just like in real life.
