Rounded up from 7.5. It's good enough to keep watching. To the guy who called it "pun-ridden", I guarantee you he likes The Big Bang Theory. This does not have a laugh track. Most of the humor is in delivery/timing. Comedies today ARE, in fact, produced cookie cutter style. Formulas are used to predict popularity; this does not fit the mold. It's pretty witty, has likable characters, and the main guy is overall likable. The swear words are not what make it funny, it's the point/counter point. Anyway, I find delivery the most important aspect in comedy, and this show doesn't fail at that. I'm going to continue to watch. Honestly, I don't think a review should have to contain 10 lines. I was done at 7, at this point my review is irrelevant.
... View MoreCompletely awful, really disappointing as I am a fan of Hulu. The show was pathetic and I agree with another review saying that the "rave reviews" must be fake.. Netflix does great a great job in contrast with original series. I would think that if Hulu is trying to work with original content, it would filter and do a good job. Instead, this show is completely cringe-worthy where I was absolutely appalled at what I was watching. I know people may have different opinions on humor but I really can't imagine someone loving this show. I watched it with my boyfriend and although we have different sense of humor, he also thought it was a pathetic attempt at entertainment. This is my first review on IMDb and it was bad enough to make me register to post this opinion. Don't waste your time.
... View MoreI don't usually comment TV series, but this one had so obviously fake positive reviews that I had to act. I watch a lot of crap and I make it my point of watching them to the end. If I can. Deadbeat was so not humorous, so annoying, so disrespectful (to me, the viewer, I mean, not possibly fun disrespect) that I could not watch it. I stopped it dead (pardon the pun) and deleted all episodes after the first ten minutes.I won't bother discussing the plot. The actor playing Dale in the Tucker and Dale movie and the girl from Hitlist UK on MTV before from you were born are starring. The first episode is about a ghost that can't pass on because he died a virgin. Need I say more? The sad part is that I really liked Dale and Tucker vs Evil.Avoid this as you would the plague.
... View Morelooking for another original to watch at night. Me and the wife came across this show on Hulu. Guy who sees ghosts and comedic ally helps them pass on?? Couldn't pass it up. It is a funny show, can't wait for the next season . It's hard to find a show that both the wife and I can watch together. I guess it takes a special kind of humor to bring us together. Good plot , likable and hate-able characters. Glad we found this show. Latest episode definitely left us wanting more. The situations this guy finds himself in really give a feel of real life, or how things would really be if people like this existed. One of my favorites. Just watch and see.
