Daddy's Divas

I really enjoyed this show so, in all probability, it isn't coming back. Still, IMDB shows a forthcoming season but here it is nearly October 2024 and there's no sign of it. The girls will both be a couple of years older now so the same jokes and storyline wouldn't work quite as well if they don't hurry it up and bring it back soon. Did they run into problems post-covid? All the good shows, the ones I like at least, seem to bite the dust. Most recently Time Bandits on Apple streaming has been cancelled, much to my dismay. Has the same thing happened to Daddy's Divas? If anyone knows what's up, let the rest of us know please.

I'm not where to start my review on this delightful series.

I'll start with the characters. Each of the children actors and actresses are so enjoyable to watch. They are sure to go far in their career. They are all so charming.

There is great humor in the writng; lots of laughs were had along the way watching this series. This is fun for the whole family.

The whole production has great quality from the sound, camera work, set design and locations.

I hope there is more to come from this great creative team.

It's always refreshing to find wholesome, family friendly entertainment in today's world.

"Daddy's Divas" is a well-made indie comedy series that's a great deal of fun, with solid performances all around. It's well directed, shot, and produced, and the ideas behind it are creative. The dialogue is well-written as well, and the child actors do solid work. You don't often see independent sitcoms, so it's especially nice to see this out there in the world. In general, it's lovely to see indie, character-driven work of all stripes get made, so I hope "Daddy's Divas" will garner the attention it deserves. Kudos to David Klinginsmith and the rest of the team for their work on this series.

A light family comedy with a few tilts to nudge-nudge darker inside adult humor, the real accomplishment comes from casting Michael McQuary in multiple parts. His willingness to absolutely divest from humility and "cabaret" every impression and character as if visiting from an alternate reality ups the strength of the comedy to unexpected levels. More MM in future seasons please!

His Brando impression, minus words in one of the later episodes, Is dead on hysterical, painting his character as a mob/director who his assistant characters seem to understand, resembling the "blah blah blah" adults in old "Peanuts" shows from the late 70s and early 80's definitely goes noticed.

Within the first few episodes it becomes clear that this show has a dark sense of humor. Case in point, very early on we have a funeral scene were a young mother lays in a casket as her husband, young children, newborn baby, and other family look on. Don't let this get you down. Within a few minutes we're laughing at a sobbing priest and an embarrassingly bad musical tribute. This show doesn't shrink away at sadness, it flips it over like a messy flapjack and serves it up with whipped cream. These writers know what it's like to have young kids and a wild family life, and they know all we can do is put on a smile and look at the bright side.

Cinematography, acting, music are all fantastic. The lead actor has a lot of charisma. His character is in a tough spot in his life and he's very quickly easy to root for. The kids are also great, it never feels like they are disney channel over-acting.

Don't miss Daddy's Divas.
