Reviews

rowan_red When I discovered Moone Boy, I found the answer to everything I'd hoped for in a series, considering my love for things Irish! It is the story of Martin Moone, a boy growing up in Roscommon, with three scary older sisters and a helpful imaginary friend named Sean Murphy. As the series continues, wonderful new characters come into the picture: Padraic, the comical best friend; Dessie, the church musician and love interest for older sister Fidelma; the Bonner Brothers and their hapless dad; Granddad Moone, who used to be a musician in the old days; the parish priest, who is a very nice guy, but harried; the mom's slutty friend; and a family of travelers which includes Martin's love interest. This show just gives and gives! And I LOVE the opening song, "Where's Me Jumper?".

misersmac I cherish when a series like this comes along. This is such a magical show. I had to watch all available 3 seasons in a weekend I just could not stop. The whole cast is wonderful, I was transported back to the 80's and it was a fun ride. I still smile thinking about it. Kudos to all involved with this project as everyone in the Moone family reminded me of someone in my crazy family. Being a Mom in the 80's of a son who was Martins age I so related to Deirdre O'Kanes as Debra Moone and the struggles we make entertaining and funny just to get through it. And Chris O'Dowd and David Rawle just like peas and carrots,, feckin great show,,, and great writing Chris...thank you all ,,such a treat.

user-847-318571 What a gem! For those who liked "Malcom in the Middle" or "Everybody Hates Chris", "Freaks and Geeks" or "Scrubs" even, I think they'd enjoy this series a lot. It has that quirky family dynamic and coming-of-age story arc that's timeless and relatable, and kept me coming back. I cannot wait for more seasons.It's very funny but also poignant at times, as it doesn't shy away from serious topics. It has the right amount of cutaways (i think many non laugh track sitcoms abuse this), and I love the occasional 80s soundtrack. The 'Goodfellas' episode had me laughing out loud. The only other show that makes me do that is Community. I'm so glad that it's on hulu, I hope more Americans watch this show.

clareobrien9 First of all I would like to point out that this is a comedy based in Ireland please everybody stop saying "British comedy". I have watched and laughed through each episode. Padric is a excellent character i knew someone just like him when i was 12! Having grown up in Ireland during this period the music the details on the set all bring my childhood rushing back to me and even though growing up in Ireland at this time was not a bed of roses its lovely to watch it with humour. in fact i watched it with my Greek husband and he thought it was brilliant! well done to Chris o Dowd I'm looking forward to the next series!
