Deadloch (2023– )
7/10
If Letterkenny, Doc Martin and Ted Lasso Had an Australian Baby
11 June 2023
I mean it. If you've heard of Lasso but not the other two, you're spare parts, bud - go get yourself a Puppers and bother some Canadian Gooses. This has more in common with Letterkenny and Doc Martin's humor by far.

If you like good detective series and don't mind a side of raucous Ozzie laughs, give 'er a whirl.

If you come in expecting the next The Killing or Wallander, you'll be crying in that Puppers.

While the murder story is decent - starting itself out with the usual trope of "detective who no longer wants to do detectiving" - it's often directly interrupted by the "loveable small-town idiots" aspect that's at the center of Deadloch and honestly, sets it apart. I found myself laughing aloud far more than I expected to.

If the fact that the two mains are gay annoys you to point of Karening a review that misappropriates the word "woke," well I got nothing for ya, bud. Go bother some Canadian Gooses.

But if you've got a problem with Canadian Gooses, you've got a problem with me - and I suggest you let that one marinate.
