Seed

Unfortunately this show was not funny at all. city tv had ads all over the place and it looked like it would be good but it was a serious disappointment to me. kept trying but it didn't get any better and then was canceled fast, probably a smart move. the lead adam korson was the complete wrong choice for this role and the show just was not funny at all.

Within a week, we have binged both seasons of this show. I loved the cast and the kids are great. The stories are nothing new but still funny. Overall, thisnshow should of been on at least another year or two. How shows like this die after a season or two, but How I met Your Mother and Mom lived on forever. Mom is still on somehow. Either way, give this show a chance. It is raunchy a lot but it has heart, as well. Give it a shot.

Seed is the latest in a long line of crappy new Canadian TV comedy series. It is about a guy who ends up getting put in touch with or contacted by kids who he fathered without ever knowing them or their mothers, by being a sperm donor. It's on OK premise but nothing about this show works. The cast is the main problem, almost every cast member is terrible. The lead is unbelievable, unfunny, not even likable. Unlikeable can be really funny for a TV show character but in this case the guy is just so not funny it's infuriating. He can't deliver a joke right to save his life. Not that he has a lot to work with because the writing is also not there. The show just looks cheap and bad and the jokes are terrible and don't work. I don't know how a show like this gets made, how many people looked at this garbage and said "yes" in order for it to go through all the steps of production and actually put on the air? I still have only met 6 people who have even seen this show at all and all of them hated it as much as I do, so how is it still on the air? The IMDb page here even says "not yet released", that is how few people watch or care about this show. And I suspect the lone review here, a glowing rant, is actually written by a cast or crew member or one of their loved ones. This show stinks, stinks, stinks! Crap!

I have to admit I am pretty surprised that this show got renewed and on top of that I hear it is going to be on TV in the United States too so that is good and I am very much hoping that that means the show will get better next year.

From what I have heard the show has very bad ratings and I don't know anyone who is watching it. We watched it every week but it hasn't improved yet.

All of the characters are not real and beyond that they are very annoying to me. The premise of the show is good and had promise but it is poorly written, again unreal and with bad jokes. So the show hasn't made good on that promise.

Harry Dacosta is a single slacker bartender. Nine year old Billy Jones-Krasnoff tracks down Harry as his sperm donor father. His lesbian mothers Michelle Krasnoff and Zoey Jones are over-protective and he's an odd bullied kid. He's attracted to Rose Maybely but she's on her way to the fertility clinic. Instead of paying for the expensive procedure, she tries to have sex with Harry. She discovers that Harry is a lying idiot and goes back to the sperm bank where she gets Harry's sperm anyways. Anastasia Colborne also tracks down sperm donor dad Harry. She's rebelling against her strict psychologist mother Dr. Janet Colborne and brow-beaten father Jonathan Colborne.

This is modern family in an odd way. I think the oddball connections probably throw some people off. It hits on some awkward subjects as comedic fodder. At its core, it's still a traditional family sitcom. It's a very tiny core. Adam Korson has the slacker bit but he needs more likability. The kids are fun and the family dysfunction is funny.
