Seed

Harry Dacosta is a single slacker bartender. Nine year old Billy Jones-Krasnoff tracks down Harry as his sperm donor father. His lesbian mothers Michelle Krasnoff and Zoey Jones are over-protective and he's an odd bullied kid. He's attracted to Rose Maybely but she's on her way to the fertility clinic. Instead of paying for the expensive procedure, she tries to have sex with Harry. She discovers that Harry is a lying idiot and goes back to the sperm bank where she gets Harry's sperm anyways. Anastasia Colborne also tracks down sperm donor dad Harry. She's rebelling against her strict psychologist mother Dr. Janet Colborne and brow-beaten father Jonathan Colborne.

This is modern family in an odd way. I think the oddball connections probably throw some people off. It hits on some awkward subjects as comedic fodder. At its core, it's still a traditional family sitcom. It's a very tiny core. Adam Korson has the slacker bit but he needs more likability. The kids are fun and the family dysfunction is funny.

Seed is a horrendous show. I can't believe it has a 6 out of 10 rating on IMDb. So many ratings of a perfect 10. Makes me suspicious that maybe the show or the network have signed up for a million fake accounts just to make it look like people actually watch and like this show. Have you ever met someone who watches and enjoys this show because I haven't. I have only sat through two full episodes and the start of the third, gave it more than enough chance to stop sucking but it is just a terribly and not funny show. Canadian TV comedies just keep getting worse. Dan for Mayor and Hiccups were awful, Satisfaction and Package Deal are awful, Seed is awful. Maybe we just should stop trying to make comedy TV shows because the networks in Canada obviously can't hack it.

I love this show. The writing is very clever and funny and the actors are all exceptional in my opinion.

Yes sometimes the situations are predictable, but the humor is spot on.

The relationships are believable and remind me of people I know.

I hope it hasn't been discontinued like all of the other good shows!

In fact, it's difficult to choose a favorite character.

Will there be more?

Please say so :)

This ten line thing is ridiculous, and you spell check too? Okay then. One more line then I can go.

Why are the parents treating him as though he found the kids and infiltrated their lives? That's not what happened at all. This and this alone makes me not like the show.

Seed is the latest in a long line of crappy new Canadian TV comedy series. It is about a guy who ends up getting put in touch with or contacted by kids who he fathered without ever knowing them or their mothers, by being a sperm donor. It's on OK premise but nothing about this show works. The cast is the main problem, almost every cast member is terrible. The lead is unbelievable, unfunny, not even likable. Unlikeable can be really funny for a TV show character but in this case the guy is just so not funny it's infuriating. He can't deliver a joke right to save his life. Not that he has a lot to work with because the writing is also not there. The show just looks cheap and bad and the jokes are terrible and don't work. I don't know how a show like this gets made, how many people looked at this garbage and said "yes" in order for it to go through all the steps of production and actually put on the air? I still have only met 6 people who have even seen this show at all and all of them hated it as much as I do, so how is it still on the air? The IMDb page here even says "not yet released", that is how few people watch or care about this show. And I suspect the lone review here, a glowing rant, is actually written by a cast or crew member or one of their loved ones. This show stinks, stinks, stinks! Crap!
