Lodge 49

It is possible you need to be in the right place in your life to enjoy this show(or the wrong one perhaps). While it has funny moments, Lodge 49 isn't a comedy. Drama isn't quite right either. The show very differently touches on loneliness ahs that lost feeling life gives you sometimes.

I actually downloaded these episodes, and watched the entire first season in one night. Truly flawed but likeable characters, weird events, and touching moments.

Only reason I took away one star was for season 1 ending, the last maybe two minutes, bleh. The rest of the season, great fresh story !

It was a lot of things -- quirky, warm, compassionate, weirdly comical at times, but sort of like People of Earth in the way it showed people's connectedness and sense of community. I'm heartbroken that it was cancelled.

Watching this show pulls you into a world of drab mediocrity. It's characters are funny and complex. There is an element of suspense and mystery that keeps up interest. But the characters are the story. It has the kind of humor that makes you feel you are there with the characters when they crack you up without doing anything particularly outrageous. Great timing. Good gags. Subtle absurdity. The dingy atmosphere of many scenes enhances the profundity of some of the dialogue. Great writing and delivery by the cast.

This was such a lovely show with gentle soul. It's such s shame to have been cancelled after an outstanding second season.

I'm hoping that hulu will pick it up for two / three more seasons.

If not Hulu, then Amazon or NetFlix. Somebody needs to pick this up.

I really enjoyed the show and watched all 10 episodes in a weekend! The story is deeper than the usual show out there and the characters make you jump right into the story. The actors do a great job, the pace might be a bit slow for the average viewer but i think Jim Garvin did a great job and i look forward to a second season.
