Stellar writing, a perfect cast, and excellent all-round production that should have lasted way beyond it's single season.
I just discovered this gem via a clip off of Reddit (eggless omelette) and watched all six episodes in a row.
It's full of clever situations, characters that are layered and sympathetic along with laugh-out-loud scenes that were perfectly executed. I can't believe this show didn't get the chance it deserved. Would figure that the BBC dishonorably cut it just because of budget restraints.
Do yourself a favor and watch this intelligently-written, superbly acted treasure.
Cheers!

It's so bittersweet when you find a show this good but know its been cancelled so all you are going to get is one season. If only tv stations/corporations valued content more than profit shows like this would get renewed but from what I read the biggest reason this was cancelled was an effort to try and cut costs. These types of comedies are so well done since its nothing like a typical sitcom and takes a somewhat intelligent and sharp mind to be able to catch all the subtle jokes. I think this kind of comedy all started with BBC The Office so hope to see more like it in the future.
This is one of the rare comedies that are actually funny! This one had me in stitches several times, and laughing often. A great cast of characters -- what a shame there's only one season!
"2010-" what a tease--I wish there was a possibility of this series coming back for more episodes. Bright, witty, and endearing. Alan Davies is always good but the entire cast is wonderful (can't get enough of Darren Boyd or Katherine Parkinson). Don't know how the Brits decide what continues. But I think their television is more fluid then in the US, so maybe Whites will be back. Hope so.
Whites is laugh out loud (excuse the cliché) and intelligent comedy. I keep finding that European comedies are replacing all my previous favorites. Intelligent mixed with silly and sometimes the down right absurd. Whites is no exception with Kiki providing the absurd. I am disappointed that this was so short lived and would beg BBC and the producers to bring it back. There is a depth to the characters and an engaging storyline that is now incomplete and deserving of much more. I would prefer it stay strictly British though. Few comedies of this caliber rarely translates well into an American production (The Office excluded). Please bring Whites back or produce more of the same for us Americans who are intelligent and love humor both.
