Darby and Joan

Brian Brown always the gentleman was great I enjoyed his character from beginning to end, can't wait till next season. Big surprise was the LACK OF profanity, sex & nudity considering its Aussie made. Well done writers, actors , producers& team👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼I think there were a couple "S" maybe "Bloo.." in FaceTime chats with Joan's (Greta Scacchi) gay daughter & her wife.. however the story was so good kept me guessing most way through. I do enjoy a good mystery. And ohhh the countryside is exquisite it will draw holiday makers to north east Queensland for sure💓 Darby & Joan is the most enjoyable show I've been able to watch in years, as most are just to much to see & hear for me anyway.... WELL DONE 👍

Perfectly charming, easy watch, set in Queensland, Australia as the odd couple travel around in their Camper Van (Grey Nomads R Us) with British Joan (the nurse cum forensic pathologist) and Ozzie Jack (the retired detective). Joan's seeking closure after the death of her slightly dubious husband, while Jack definitely has some skeletons in the closet surrounding his depart from the Australian Police service.

Beautiful scenery, simple stories (no surprises), not so much as a 'mild peril'. 40 mins of the kind of gentle detective story we're coming to love from this platform.

Greta Scacchi and Bryan Brown are the unlikely pair who are *definitely* not in a relationship, but manage to have enough chemistry and tension to keep the viewer interested while they solve today's mystery and explore the back stories.

Right up there with Father Brown and Rosemary and Thyme.

Very much hoping for a second season.

Just what we need after the graphic sex and violence over-excess of 'Outlander' and 'Game of Dragons" A gentle romantic comedy with two late middle aged retirees trekking through rural Australia solving simple ethically ambiguous crimes as they go, with gently bickering witty repartee. Darby and Joan being the perfect title. Bryan Brown and Greta Scacchi show that over 60's have still got it and make a very attractive couple without resorting to full frontal nudity and waggling bare bottoms. The two of them are so perfectly matched one would think they had 'been together now for 40 years and it don't seem a day too much'. OK, the plots are simple, but if we need violent crime all we have to do is read tody's papers. I loved the line "My sister was married to Darby a few wives back!"

Although many reviews have placed the setting in the outback, it is set in the Queensland costal area.

Not blood, gore and sex ... but GREAT chemistry. Absolutely LOVE the interaction between Greta & Bryan. Beautiful and handsome - NOT the fake beauty on American TV. We love it. Each show is good and builds towards the conclusion but also, THANKFULLY, toward another season. Takes advantage of the scenery and culture of Australia and Queensland. Interesting supporting characters in each episode. PLEASE keep the seasons coming. I can see these two characters together for many seasons and it would not be boring watching the relationship grow. LOVE LOVE LOVE Bryan Brown and the REAL mature Greta Scacchi! THANK YOU.

Darby And Joan is a heartwarming series with two likeable and intelligent leads doing some amateur sleuthing while trying to solve the mystery surrounding Joan's husband who was found dead in Australia when he was ostensibly in Spain. Joan is English, a nurse and, while there a few "fish out of water" tropes these are few and she's no fool. Jack Darby is the laconic, emotionally stunted Aussie bloke, but there is more to him than that. He just doesn't want to overshare. Some great cameos from familiar Aussie actors and fantastic scenery to boot. If you want some light viewing with an overarching engaging narrative I can highly recommend this series. I hope there is a season 2.
