Hatching, Matching, & Dispatching

I've never written a review before, but after watching 'Hatching, Matching and Dispatching' on Amazon Prime I felt compelled to share my thoughts on this wonderful, Canadian gem! Mary Walsh is superb ,(as usual), and Susan Kent as 'Darlene' was excellent! If you're not averse to foul language, un-PC, and sometimes crude-humour, give this show a try. I had a lazy day, all by myself, and binge-watched on the weekend; I genuinely laughed right out-loud every episode.

Some decent laughs. It was more a CBC comedy show for my parents than me and my friends, is a good way I would describe it. Nothing special and really basic comedy but good for what it was, a few laughs here and there and Mary Walsh is always fun.

Can't believe that this show was cancelled, I couldn't wait to see the newest episode. I was also hoping to get this released on DVD or even find some poorly ripped video on the internet but I've yet to find it. Troy (Jonny Harris) for me made the show, just seen an episode of Comedy Now with him and all I could think of was getting all the episodes of HMD.

I also ran into Shaun Majumder one night and told him how much I loved the show. He was there with another bunch of the writers and he told me how much fun that they were having making it, it was nice to see how genuine he was.

Maybe I'm a little bias but I truly enjoyed every second of the show and would love to see it again.

A hilarious mockumentary style series in the vein of The Office and Parks N Rec. Do yourself a favour, give it a chance. If you like the humour of Christopher Guest, this will be well up your alley.

I can't understand how undervalued this show is. It's got all sorts of elements of other popular shows (particularly HBO ones like "Six Feet Under" and "Trailer Park Boys") and is outrageously funny. Maybe it's the Newf accents, although they have been kept down to a dull roar. I did spend some educational years in Newfoundland, so perhaps this is why I think it's so brilliant, but it doesn't seem all that impenetrable to me.

Naughtiness was everywhere and it was hilarious. Cedric and the moose literally made my insides lose all air and go giddy with glee over something so disgusting being on our national broadcaster.

Except for Sean Majumder, Mary Walsh and Mark McKinney I wasn't all that familiar with any of the other actors, but they really did such a good job of portraying that dichotomy between expected reactions and actual reactions that kept me in hysterics throughout.

I've been really sorry that this show has disappeared.
