Cavendish

Funny how the only people with a problem are from Cavendish. It's a funny show. No one cares if it isn't representative of the actual place. Good characters and funny content.

Hilarious show with alums of short lived but beloved sketch show Picnicface. An absolute much watch!

Loved the first episode! Along the same lines as The Strange Calls and similar humour to Flight of the concords. Really hope the rest is as good. Classic Canadian humour.

My family and I were excited to watch this show as we do enjoy the unique humour of our beloved country. The first episode was funny but did not grab me. The second episode?!?! Well that was an entirely different story. While I too am 'from away' (the dreaded Ontario), I have been to Cavendish and happily admit that I bought into the entire 'Anne' experience. About ten minutes into episode two, we had to pause the show as we were laughing so hard that we were crying. Several pauses, snorts, tears and welll...almost inciontinence left us all howling with laughter. The words, 'stop - I can't take it!' roared from our mouths. Bravo to all involved in making this great home-grown entertainment. For the haters....come on, really? If we can't laugh at ourselves then what is the point. We live in a magnificent country with wonderful, diverse regional idiosyncrasies be they accurately portrayed or not. Embrace the humour. Look at Bob and Doug Mackenzie - iconic Canadian humour. Do we take offence? Cavendish - keep up the great work. My family can't wait for episode three!!

This show is really different than other sitcoms right now. Very quirky & funny with lots of laugh-out-loud one liners & situational absurdities. The polarity between the brothers fuels the quick-witted banter. And the supporting characters of the boys' cantankerous father along with a plethora of eccentric town folk with wacky idiosyncrasies rounds out a great ensemble cast.

The negative reviews are almost exclusively by real Cavandish islanders who seem to think that this is actually about them. Of course people don't really think Cavendish is like this. Just like there is no 278-yr-old British guy fighting a headless horsemen in "Sleepy Hollow," no teenagers fighting supernatural beings like Big Foot in "Eerie, Indiana," or aliens actually living in "Roswell, N.M."

So ignore the negative comments about how "Cavendish" portrays islanders badly (seriously - no one actually thinks that the citizens of Cavendish are rubes who believe a mythical beast lives on the island & hunts people), and just enjoy the obviously fictional and farcical adventures in the show.
