Vier Hochzeiten und ein Todesfall

As many have stated, this mini series is a second cousin at best to the original film. I, however, see nothing wrong with that for it is utterly entertaining.

I really enjoy this series, I feel that the characters are more real and the stories are interesting; love that they include other cultures traditions in some scenes. A lot of episodes are full of heart, really enjoy the funeral episode, it even make me cry a little bit.

But I still don't see the connection to the 90s movie 😂

I'm not sure why some of the reviews are so down on this series. I found the joke writing to be quite clever, especially at making fun of American cultural and political quirkiness. When was the last time I saw a relatable and funny Muslim family cast in a show? Never...until now. I think setting the show in London was a good choice, and most of the casting is excellent.

I admit that there are two characters and/or actors playing them (I'm not sure which is the main problem for me) that I am not the most fond of, but overall I like the character development, unexpected twists, and fresh take on what it means to live in a culturally diverse big city in 2019.

I decided to watch it because it was on top of my "watch now" on Hulu. Honestly, the story is adorable. I think the acting is very good and I fell in love with the characters. The only thing (and the reason I'm giving it a 9) is it isn't over the top funny. You get some good chuckles in every once and a while. The funniest characters are Kash's Dad and friend by far. But honestly, I think it has great potential. Sometimes watching something light can be really enjoyable.

I really enjoyed watching that show. I think that people have to appreciate it for what it is, a lighthearted rom-com. Sometimes after a stressful day at work you just wanna grab a glass of wine and watch a show that isn't heavy. This was perfect.
