Step Dave

I just have to say how much I love the New Zealand accent. I initially thought this show would be cheesy and just silly, but I gave it a shot, and ended up watching both seasons in 2 days. It's light-hearted, well-acted, and has lots of attractive people. Too bad there weren't more seasons.

Every episode told a wonderful story...the acting was awesome. Aside from the age difference...Cara and Dave made it believable!

Amazon offered this for a time free, and uninterrupted, but now it is only S1 and full of awkward, and spastic commercials that can go as much as 70 minutes and then shows 20 seconds before going to another 40+ minute series of horrid commercials. The show is excellent, and the cast superb, but also so well organized. I want to buy it on DVD one day it will be available in the US.

Don't let its two season run put you off, 'Step Dave' is definitely one of the best drama series to have come out of New Zealand!

'Step Dave' centres on Dave, a 24 year old barman who sleeps around and loves to party. He is a down to earth kiwi bloke. Cara is a 39 year old single mother of three, who owns her own business and tries to resist her sister's attempts to set her up on dates.

A chance meeting leads to the collision of two very different worlds and a night of bonding during a three hour wait at an A&E clinic. Dave and Cara find that they can't stop thinking about each other and meet up again, only to discover that they have a 15 year age gap. Their relationship surely couldn't work, could it?

Step Dave is a lighthearted romantic comedy with a perfect range of supporting characters. The series is well written and an enjoyable watch and it is interesting to see the development of not only Dave and Cara as their relationship progresses but also of their friends and family. A highly recommended watch.

This show had me hooked from the beginning, all the characters are perfectly cast and they throw enough surprises in to keep you guessing. Watch this you will not be sorry.
