Diary of an Uber Driver

Great little show which is funny at times, poignant at others. What a crazy mixture of customers. It was fascinating to see the development and/or background of the characters.

Have just finished binging the series. Thoughtful, poignant and wonderful. Thanks ABC Australia!

This follows the daily life of an Uber Driver (guess that was no surprise hey ! ) but the main character is so terribly nice and kind and I felt totally drawn to him. Very well done - humorous and human at the same time. Highly recommended.

I drove Uber for four years and completed 14,132 trips and my star rating was 4.94 when I stopped driving in March 2020.

When this series was announce, I was so excited, thinking, if they stories are even half as funny and interesting as what has happened to me, this series will be amazing.

This is fertile ground for comedy and observation. You meet all sorts of people, and people are LAWAYS funny. They are funny when they don't mean to be. When they are trying to have a serious conversation with you about politics or what they do for a living. No one knows what they really do for a living.

This series had non of that though. It felt more like a writer's imagination of what Uber driving must be like. It is nothing like portrayed in this series.

There is no suspense, no comedy, no hard-hitting reality, nothing. This is a very unremarkable production. I laboured through a few episodes, only watched two or three.

They took a writer's potential gold mine and turned it into a barren filed of nothingness. Give it a miss, you wont be missing anything.

Best Australian comedy/drama I've seen in years! Had me laughing out loud! Super talented acting cast including lots of familiar Aussie faces. Based on the best selling e-book by Ben Phillips. Highly recommend the book and the show.
