Review of The Moodys

The Moodys (2014)
10/10
Finally, A great Aussie Comedy Series
27 March 2014
I loved the Moody Christmas series, thought the writers captured the spirit of understatement, subtle humour and universal comedic themes. But this series has somehow managed to improve. All of the actors are just perfect with their deliveries, looks, actions and personalities. I grew up with the great British comedy series from Hancock, Til Death Us Do Part and Steptoe through On The Buses to Are You Being Served and Dad's Army, and have been constantly disappointed with most of the Australian humour (Gunston and Mother and Son being outstanding exceptions). But this series has really captured what humour to me is about - no slapstick, no laugh track, no simple automatic retorts, just great build up and truly humorous situations. Looking forward to the next series.
