Cringe humor but well done

sommervr

This is the same type of cringe humor displayed by the Office but maybe a little gentler with a Canadian slant.

I am finding as I get older that there is a significant proportion of the population that won't get shows like this and these account for the negative reviews. If you liked "Two and a half Men" or think Tim Allen is the funniest guy ever don't watch this show. There is plenty of stuff more to your taste available.

Gerry is an egotistical ass and he plays it pretty straight. The humour hits like a car crash in that it is unavoidable and a prisoner of the momentum of Gerry's failings. It has a sweet heart though with the kids who are in on the joke from the start.

score 9/10
