Turner & Hooch

It is what it is. Cute, Funny, Lighthearted, Goofy, Entertaining... The characters grow on you as the show progresses. It is fun for the whole family.

I would definitely recommend for a family show night.

I only saw episode 1 of this series, so my review is for it alone.

I liked the T&H movie with Tom Hanks a lot, bot I didn't expect much from a rehash of the movie into a series. The series is quite obviously meant for younger audiences, but that doesn't mean an old geezer like me cannot enjoy it. Yes special effects are on the suspect side, but it's the plot with it's human interactions that matter. The reviewers that complain about such trivial things are missing the point of this episode. It was nice to fill in the missing years after the movie, so we know immediately where we are in the series time and space. I will sum the episode with the words VERY CUTE.

I know that children will love the series, and I'm sure most adults will like too.

This is a Disney series and the writing is targeted to kids. I watched three episodes and it was tough, because Scott (Josh Peck) just makes the same mistakes over and over again and you know Hooch is going to screw up every time. Little kids will love it.

The actors just read the lines they are given and the acting isn't bad, it's the writing but it's not meant for adults. It's Disney so everything turns out ok.

Someone mentioned "Hudson & Rex" a Canadian series filmed in Newfoundland, Canada, about a St John's detective and his German Shephard/Alsation dog Rex, which is written for adults and is better. It's a spin off of the very long running Austrian series "Inspector Rex".

Ok this show is far from perfect but it's hardly horrible! I actually enjoyed watching it even without considering the nostalgia factor. Most people I know would classify it as "cute." Definitely made for a younger audience than the original film was, but all the actors are quite nice-looking and they really are not as bad as some of the reviewers say. I've seen much worse. The transition into the dog acceptance was a bit fast, but it had to be in order to fit it into the 47 minute episode. I did genuinely laugh at some of the Hooch reaction moments and antics, and was rooting for the dog as intended. Go ahead and watch with your family, you won't be disappointed.

Seriously, it's so good! The amazingly gorgeous, beautiful, sweet, lovable Hooch aside ((yes, I'm biased!), the script is funny, the lead actor a great casting choice, and an all round entertaining show 🙌
