Boy Meets Girl

I was late to this show; just discovered it on BritBox. It's sweet, smart, and laugh out loud funny. It tastefully deals with trans issues within a traditional comedy format. It takes the matter seriously but balances this with the right amount of humor. More importantly, there are great characters that you can relate to and quickly grow to adore. It's well written and the cast is outstanding. Denise Welch and Janine Duvitski as the mums are standouts. And the chemistry between Judy and Leo is beautifully brought to life by the wonderful Rebecca Root and Harry Hepple.

Not mind-blowingly so, but often funny, with a very likable main couple. Not derivative either. :)

I loved the first season of this comedy and now the second season is here I want to congratulate the writers for a well written sitcom with a difference. It could have been crass and smutty but it is very funny and sensitive. The acting on the whole is very good with one exception and that is Jonny Dixon. Although he is supposed to be a bit of a lad his acting is way over the top in this second series and is not believable at all. He seems to have been given free range on the character and not pulled up on his overacting, as if on a stage, and not TV. The rest of the cast are excellent and very believable. I hope the series continues to be handled in the same way.

I was lucky to have picked this up late and be able to watch the whole series in one foul swoop. One of the funniest and heart warming comedies I have seen in ages, absolutely brilliant.

Some of the actors may not be that well known, but they certainly did a stand up job entertaining and making me laugh almost all the way through.

The show has a serious side, but the comedy is definitely not forced. The families involved could only be described as different being nice and absolutely nutty being even nicer.

If you have an open mind and want to be entertained definitely watch this show.

I loved the show and really hope there is a second series.

I've not been majorly impressed with some of the sitcoms we've been given in recent times. Boy meets Girl has given us some genuine laughs, it's funny and truly entertaining, but there's also a story to it, it feels like it's doing more then just making laughs. The whole concept of a transgender age gap comedy is fairly brave for the BBC, normally we have to contend with a mummy, a daddy, a daughter and a son. Has even the BBC moved on at last? We see the meeting, dating and growing of the relationship between Judy and Leo, and the effects on both their families, each full of their own particular quirks. I've been so impressed with all aspects of this comedy, the cast are a delight and even at this early stage i'll say it, please order a second series. 10/10
