Hatching, Matching, & Dispatching

Can't believe that this show was cancelled, I couldn't wait to see the newest episode. I was also hoping to get this released on DVD or even find some poorly ripped video on the internet but I've yet to find it. Troy (Jonny Harris) for me made the show, just seen an episode of Comedy Now with him and all I could think of was getting all the episodes of HMD.

I also ran into Shaun Majumder one night and told him how much I loved the show. He was there with another bunch of the writers and he told me how much fun that they were having making it, it was nice to see how genuine he was.

Maybe I'm a little bias but I truly enjoyed every second of the show and would love to see it again.

A hilarious mockumentary style series in the vein of The Office and Parks N Rec. Do yourself a favour, give it a chance. If you like the humour of Christopher Guest, this will be well up your alley.

I can't understand how undervalued this show is. It's got all sorts of elements of other popular shows (particularly HBO ones like "Six Feet Under" and "Trailer Park Boys") and is outrageously funny. Maybe it's the Newf accents, although they have been kept down to a dull roar. I did spend some educational years in Newfoundland, so perhaps this is why I think it's so brilliant, but it doesn't seem all that impenetrable to me.

Naughtiness was everywhere and it was hilarious. Cedric and the moose literally made my insides lose all air and go giddy with glee over something so disgusting being on our national broadcaster.

Except for Sean Majumder, Mary Walsh and Mark McKinney I wasn't all that familiar with any of the other actors, but they really did such a good job of portraying that dichotomy between expected reactions and actual reactions that kept me in hysterics throughout.

I've been really sorry that this show has disappeared.

HMD is (was) one of the funniest shows I've had the pleasure of watching. Perhaps my view is a little distorted as I am from Newfoundland. Nevertheless I started watching this show with the expectation that it was going to be terrible as I generally do not enjoy the comedy of Mary Walsh. I was shocked at how outlandishly funny and refreshing the show was. It was clearly a distorted representation of what Newfoundland life is all about – and it is a monster hit in my opinion. This is hands down high tier (albeit low brow) Canadian comedy show compared to classics like Kids in the Hall and This Hour has 22 Minutes.

How can CBC cancel a show like this, but push on with the dribble such as Corner Gas?

I've never written a review before, but after watching 'Hatching, Matching and Dispatching' on Amazon Prime I felt compelled to share my thoughts on this wonderful, Canadian gem! Mary Walsh is superb ,(as usual), and Susan Kent as 'Darlene' was excellent! If you're not averse to foul language, un-PC, and sometimes crude-humour, give this show a try. I had a lazy day, all by myself, and binge-watched on the weekend; I genuinely laughed right out-loud every episode.
