Hounds

OK - I'll admit it. I love good comedy. Which means I don't have many love affairs. Even British comedy has let me down over the past few years. But not as badly as Kiwi comedy ... UNTIL HOUNDS! This is comedy at its best, in my opinion. I watched every episode and enjoyed each one. It's quirky, original, clever and, most of all, funny. I can only hope that the makers get the NZ On Air funding to make another series. God knows NZOA backs some real stinkers. It's about time they back a winner.

Let me add that the acting was brilliant, the characters believable, the scripts tight and well executed. And, miracles of miracles, the comedic acting was not the usual over the top rubbish Kiwi audiences are used to. So the director deserves full credit as well. Bring on the second series. And if it's as good as the first, then keep them going.
