Happy!

Updated review (about season 2) I LOVED the first season of this show, especially the first few episodes - but I'm SIGNIFICANTLY less impressed with season 2. I'd rate season 1 as a 10 - and season 2 as maybe a 5 or 6. I just don't really care about the show this year, although I've been watching all the episodes - but 'the thrill is gone.'

Original review: (about the first season) I can't praise this gem any more highly. It's funny as heck. And it's got such a deliciously dark sense of humor. I love it. This certainly won't be everybody's cup of tea - but it's fun, fun, fun. I can't wait for next week. This show reminds me that Chris. M. can act, and the writers are pushing the limits with cutting edge edginess that they wouldn't even have tried getting past the censors even a few years ago. Don't let the 'imaginary' stuffed blue unicorn fool you - this is NOT for kids.

The show deserves a proper ending - season 3 or at least a one long episode/movie. It's dark, funny, crazy with some twists and great characters. Christopher Meloni is just amazing, I couldn't believe he could be that good. Hopefully someone wake up in Netflix or other network and make people happy with telling us the whole story of Happy and Nick Sax.

Really funny. I love this dark humour. I had a lot of fun watching this serie. Acting is good and even if there is a blue imaginary unicorn this is not a show for kids. Second season is good, but the first was better. I would have liked a third one.

An excellent series devoid of rationality and full of wacky characters, irreverent dialogues and bewildering twists. Happy, a blue flying unicorn, is the imaginary friend of Hailey Hansen who has just been kidnapped, among other children of the same age, by an ersatz of Santa Claus. His father, Nick Sax, a former cop and now a renowned hitman, has perpetually a hangover, no matter what. Happy will inform Nick of the tricky situation and they will together move heaven and earth in order to save Hailey. Christopher Meloni was born for this series as entertaining as innovative.

Like others have said, this show is not for everyone. It's crude, dark, vile and nasty, but if you have a dark sense of humor, this is the funniest politically incorrect show I have seen in a long time. Keep in mind it was based on a comic, and the visuals feel like it jumped right off the page on to the screen.
