Mount Pleasant

Season 3, episode 8, watched 3 seasons in 2 days, it's so much fun and addictive! Love the characters, love the storyline and love the music! It's indeed the soap opera of sitcoms as you want to know what happens next and how the storyline develops.The characters are endearing, lovable, funny, outrageous, crazy and sad. It will make you laugh, it will get you peed off, it will get you singing and a bit teary eyed! Another 2 seasons to go. Can't wait to see the rest of the episodes! Typical British sense of humor, but even if you don't understand it, you will love it! A must if you're a Brit or living in Britain and a great watch if you love British series.

It's well written.

It's a better way of seeing neighbors become good friends and family to each other. There are some action filled episodes too. If there is a character you don't like at first, over time you will see their growth and develop a heart for them.

I found Mount Pleasant cast to be whiners with screeching voices. Plus I can't stand shows where in-laws just barge in and have no common sense. Every minute seemed to be people arguing.

Is everyone an alcoholic on this show? Maybe I'm used to watching shows here in the US but it's rare to see this much constant heavy drinking in any comedy/drama like this genre.

None of the characters can seemingly do anything without either a beer or glass of wine in their hand. Or a shot, or a margarita, or vodka. It's ridiculous. The only exception I can see is maybe Lisa's parents who are delightful. As is the intelligent neighbor guy. Snappy dialogue as well and quirky story arcs.

I've really enjoyed Lisa in Madame Blanc. She's much better utilized there. The nonstop booze turned me off on this one, tho, so moving on.

I loved the first 4 seasons. Would've given it an 8 maybe even a 9. But I've been struggling watching season 5 and just gave up. I'd rather rewatch the first 4 than continue.
