Moone Boy

What a gem! For those who liked "Malcom in the Middle" or "Everybody Hates Chris", "Freaks and Geeks" or "Scrubs" even, I think they'd enjoy this series a lot. It has that quirky family dynamic and coming-of-age story arc that's timeless and relatable, and kept me coming back. I cannot wait for more seasons.

It's very funny but also poignant at times, as it doesn't shy away from serious topics. It has the right amount of cutaways (i think many non laugh track sitcoms abuse this), and I love the occasional 80s soundtrack. The 'Goodfellas' episode had me laughing out loud. The only other show that makes me do that is Community. I'm so glad that it's on hulu, I hope more Americans watch this show.

I found this show after I watched, The I.T. Crowd. ( The altar boy episode was hysterical ) > Doesn't matter that it's an Irish show, my teenagers & I loved it and we're American and its a good comedy show, period. P.S. watch " The I.T. Crowd" also, if you haven't seen it.

I'm in on anything Chris O'Dowd and Moone Boy did not disappoint. There will be lots of comparisons to Wilfred, which I've yet to watch, but the Freaks and Geeks / Wonder Years family elements really sold me. It's only a six episode season, so jump in and try not to get frustrated by the Hulu ad breaks, of which there are far too many. The group of Dads just crack me up!I loved it when they were on the dock, and the boys rode by and yelled "queers"! BUT THEN…the one dad asked "Who's got a gun?"!! And the end, when Trevor's dad shows up! This was one of the BEST scenes! I LOVE this show!!

Another comedic triumph import from across the pond.

I cherish when a series like this comes along. This is such a magical show. I had to watch all available 3 seasons in a weekend I just could not stop. The whole cast is wonderful, I was transported back to the 80's and it was a fun ride. I still smile thinking about it. Kudos to all involved with this project as everyone in the Moone family reminded me of someone in my crazy family. Being a Mom in the 80's of a son who was Martins age I so related to Deirdre O'Kanes as Debra Moone and the struggles we make entertaining and funny just to get through it. And Chris O'Dowd and David Rawle just like peas and carrots,, feckin great show,,, and great writing Chris...thank you all ,,such a treat.

This show first came to my attention on a NYS station from Long Island. I was a fan of Chris O'Dowd's, but hadn't seen or heard of any of the other cast members. From the first episode I became a fan. It's a very clever, and original, premise. One of the things I enjoy the most about the show is that even though the imaginary friend is portrayed as an adult, he doesn't have any more smarts than the schoolboy who thought him up. The fractured family dynamic, with the financial and interpersonal struggles, plays very well, too. It weaves in the charm of small Irish towns with some consistently funny writing and plots. I hope that this show sticks around for many more years, at least until Martin gets through high school, because it's one of the shows I look forward to seeing every week.
