Ha! XD It's a different type of series than my usual serial fare. IT's just a lighthearted and very funny detective series
Here's a fairly long trailer (fan made?) for the series that should give you a good idea of what it's like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlccwl4spPY&feature=related
The lead actor (also writer and producer of the series) Alan Hawco's best friend is a musician in a band that Russel likes. So they became friends over music and it eventually led to Russel wanting to do an episode for the series.
I posted a short video and article about their friendship here: http://www.spoilertv.com/2011/08/republic-of-doyle-season-3-more.html
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
This series really needs more American fans!

ReplyDeleteHave never heard of this show, but hey, Russell Crowe is doing a guest spot? I might have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteI hate being out of the loop... if Darque recommends it, I guess I'll give it a try
