Jack Whitehall: Unterwegs mit meinem Vater

This show is amazing, so funny! Dad has such amazing personality!! I know most of it is scripted, but it doesn't matter! Still so funny! But I need more than 2 episodes!!!!

I was pleasantly surprised by this series as I'm not really a big fan of Jack Whitehall (he is no Ricky Gervais) but his dad, Michael, I found hilarious. This grumpy old Aristocrat being "forced" to be open minded and trying new this is really funny. Watched the series in one day and hope for a season two!

All I can say is "Daaadee" 😆. I'm glad I gave Jack's show a a chance, I laughed quite a few times!

I've seen some reviews stating it is 'painfully obvious' that the show is scripted. Lol thanks for that captain obvious! If people do not like this I can only assume they are lacking in a sense of humour. I however, have laughed out loud numerous times. Maybe I just appreciate the dry British humour that I have always loved. Fantastic show.

Do you have someone in your life who does not want to do anything outside of their comfort zone? If so, imagine that person's qualities quantified by ten and you have Michael "Daddy" Whitehall.

Jack Whitehall, British comedian and actor, travels with his father across the world, but they are very different human beings. Jack loves to party, laugh and is very immature while Michael is proper, dignified and horrified at anything slightly foreign. Michael is not too proper though, he loves to cuss and it is so hilarious to watch someone so old and pessimistic curse with such vile in their voice.

Michael has so many eccentric qualities: he loves Churchill with a passion, loves strange articles of clothing and seems completely unaware of his close-minded views of others. Jack constantly calls attention to these traits and it is outrageously funny to see their bickering. Michael is easily the greatest part of the show; his son Jack is far too annoying and he tries to be overly comedic.

While Jack is very annoying and almost hard to watch at times, the show gives most of the attention to Michael and their travels. I love to travel and learn; this is what this show accomplishes best. They go to interesting locales, specifically in the first two seasons that I have never heard of.

The quality of the series begins to decline when the format changes from 5-6 30 min episodes to 2 1 hour episodes per season. The earlier seasons were shot over a longer duration of time, but the last two were not and I did not feel as if Michael's heart was truly involved as he is a few years older. The show is still quite hilarious (Michael still makes fun of Jack's endowment), but I do not think any future season can quite capture the magic of the earlier ones.

I still highly recommend the show! I was belly laughing from some of the jokes! Please watch the show and I assure you it will be worth your time!!!
