Year of the Rabbit

Dan of most of Matt Berry's other stuff, wasn't 100% sure about Year of The Rabbit after the first episode, but cracked on with the second, then third and then the rest. Loved it. Different type of character played by Berry in this to his usual pompous type but very believable and interesting. All other cast are well suited and it just seems to work very well indeed. 100% recommended.

I'm obsessed. This show has been on my queue for a while and I don't like watching things with one season because if I enjoy them, I'm devastated when they aren't or haven't been renewed. But this show and it's full cast of characters was absolutely brilliant! The stories worked well and the humor was there. It is rare that I write these review unless something is TERRIBLE or ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. This was the latter, it's understandable that Covid cut network budgets but honestly this is one of those shows I would sign each and every petition for because it worked on so many levels. Everyone's performance had me on the floor. I am just going to watch it on an endless loop until Britbox, Hulu or any steamer renews it.

Brilliant concept and characters, I cannot get enough of it.

I just binge watched all 6 episodes- and loved it! Humour is subjective- and although there is lots of swearing, it didn't bother me. It was funny enough to carry it. Matt Berry is terrific as always- but everyone involved was good. It was like Bluestone 42 was sent back in time to Jack the Rippers London. Hope it's not too long until their next series and their mission from Queen Victoria. :)

Like Marmite, you will either enjoy this or you'll hate it. It's not perfect. I have watched the first three episodes. It works well as a parody of historical crime dramas, it is surreal and has a good sense of camp. The writing has a wonderful turn of phrase. It is definitely not everyone's jar of London fog, but it's worth a look.
