Nunyrbusiness I see high rating after high rating and I just don't get it. I find the Jake character to be unfunny, unattractive, a mediocre actor and unsexy. Ditch him and keep the other characters. I'm sorry but the show is not gonna do it for me.
tricapbc It is difficult to believe that this show is written by professional writers. The scripts are terrible; the actors are terrible; everything about it is horrible. Truly pathetic. I would expect such drivel from US network TV, but it is very disappointing that Canadian fare is so bad.
spokanegolfer I just finished binge watching Republic of Doyle! All in all, I found the series to be very refreshing! More than anything, I loved the shows strong family values as well as doing the right thing when the world is against you! Strong morals throughout! There are a number of attractive leading ladies throughout the series. Most of them are interested in getting closer with Jake. However, Jake only has eyes for Leslie. For some reason, it takes all 6 seasons for Jake and Leslie to be a family! The main issue I had with the show is the police force has problems with Jake and Doyle & Doyle PI investigations! They regularly serve up solved cases to the police on a silver platter, yet no gratitude to be seen. Various officers are promoted thanks to the Doyles, yet the police consider them enemies! My one gripe is the joke of firearms. Jake doesn't like and doesn't believe in firearms. He doesn't use them and I don't recall him firing one shot throughout the show. As soon as he takes a gun away from a criminal, he empties it immediately. If you watch closely, the firearms rarely have any rounds in them. Safeties are keep on and single action only firearms (1911) aren't often cocked and ready! More than anything, I love the accepting attitude of the Canadians, and willingness to give people second chances! The non-judging values are very healthy and help others to even see the good in themselves!! Did someone say Season 7??
sadak7599 I began to watch this show because I was in a show-hole. So, I found this show and decided to give it a try. Good points: - Lighthearted tone. - Beautiful city. - The Celtic rock music.Bad points: - awful acting. They try hard but... I think the worst is the main character. He is trying to be funny with a "Martin Riggs" vibe, failing miserably. The best is his father. - Cliché after cliché. All characters and situations are clichés. - Too bland and light. Shallow characters, not a bit of darkness, dark humor, gray tones. Too happy and colorful with very kind characters. - low budget looking - Not enough funny for a comedy, not enough exciting for a detective's show, not enough smart for a "smart private detective" show. - Uninteresting and boring stories.
