Quatro Casamentos e Um Funeral

I'm not sure why some of the reviews are so down on this series. I found the joke writing to be quite clever, especially at making fun of American cultural and political quirkiness. When was the last time I saw a relatable and funny Muslim family cast in a show? Never...until now. I think setting the show in London was a good choice, and most of the casting is excellent.

I admit that there are two characters and/or actors playing them (I'm not sure which is the main problem for me) that I am not the most fond of, but overall I like the character development, unexpected twists, and fresh take on what it means to live in a culturally diverse big city in 2019.

This show was just released and I have been binge watching all day. My idea of a great show is one that makes you feel the full spectrum of emotions, and this show does it beautifully. I really hope people who like this genre, give it a try.

I really enjoy this series, I feel that the characters are more real and the stories are interesting; love that they include other cultures traditions in some scenes. A lot of episodes are full of heart, really enjoy the funeral episode, it even make me cry a little bit.

But I still don't see the connection to the 90s movie 😂

As many have stated, this mini series is a second cousin at best to the original film. I, however, see nothing wrong with that for it is utterly entertaining.

Give it a chance! I started watching it thinking it would be another cheesy show but Mindy Kailing never disappoints. It is a great show with great potential. Although it is way different than the 1994 film, the story is refreshing with great acting. Nathalie Emmanuel is amazing and I can't wait for more épisodes.
