The Delivery Man

Why in the world is this show not in season 3. So rare to have a sharply written and acted comedy. Great writing and delivery.

I love this series. I wasn't sure about it at first but when I started it I watched the whole series in one day, not realizing there was only half a dozen episodes! I was so disappointed! I will be even more disappointed if they don't renew it as its a very nice, laid back, entertaining show. I especially love that it's not vulgar like most shows these days. This is my first review but I felt it was important to let the people doing the show know that there are viewers who love The Delivery Man and would hate to see it fall under the same bracket as other much- loved shows. As I said this is my first review so I honestly I don't know what else to mention in the minimum review length. Sorry IMDb!

I really rather liked this. It seemed to hit the ground running which most sitcoms fail miserably at. Darren Boyd is a talented comic actor whom I have always liked especially in Smack the Pony. The rest of the support actors do just that and support him pretty well perfectly. Paddy McGuinness managed to shake off the dreadful gameshow host persona which he employs at times and is adept at delivering his lines. I am not a huge fan of Fay Ripley but she,too, is well employed as the sister in the department who fancies Darren's character something rotten. I laughed quite a lot and look forward to seeing more episodes. Good writing and situations which ring true make The Delivery Man a great new TV series.

If there's one thing I love, it's tall handsome well built men holding babies, or feeding babies, or in general being nurturing to babies. So of course when I found this series in my suggestions from Netflix, I jumped straight on that bandwagon!

I did watch the whole season, at least as much as is on Netflix right now, and honestly I could take it or leave it. It's very lighthearted, which is nice, but as a result doesn't make a very big impression either. The humor is not terrible but doesn't make you laugh out loud either.

I do get tired of the endless drama in soap operas, but this show is one that could use a little more. Especially seeing the mothers and the births and our main character dealing with those. I'm surprised to see a show that was rated tv-14 (a soft version of MA for mature here in Canada) that danced around the issue of giving birth so much. It's a show about midwives for goodness sake! Giving birth usually has enough drama to spare, and this show capitalizes on none of that, instead choosing to use the horrible incompetence of the staff to create humor and drama.

I really did enjoy it, and the characters all have their unique charm, but they're one dimensional. I hope that in the next season (if there is one) the potential of this series will really be expanded upon.

Having watched and liked Spy very much the minute I saw this playing on an Emirates flight to London I clicked hoping to see the same quality and boy it did.

Humor is so clever, rapid, subtle and innovative that before I knew it I have already watched all episodes (I think 6) available and barely had time to go through the materials I have for my meeting. In other words no low quality "filling" whatsoever was spotted.

It so good that on the way back next day I watched it all again before even trying to see what else was there (a total of 1500 channels). Yes it is that good.

I would highly recommend it to all comedy fans. Looking forward for more of it.
