Before I get into this review, I just want to say @masksbc that your comment about people over 40 "not getting" this humour is ageist. My husband and I are well past 40 and we love the show.
This series features the best talents from several generations of Canadian comedy. It's wonderful to see SCTV's Robin Duke and Kids In The Hall's Mark McKinney in a series together. Man Seeking Woman is certainly not for everyone's taste but if you were a fan of SCTV, Kids In The Hall and some of Lorne Michaels weirder productions, you'll "get" this.
Filmed in Toronto, Man Seeking Woman is surreal, odd, silly, figurative and at times delightfully bizarre but it retains a coherent plot of a young man (Baruchel) who breaks up with his girlfriend and has trouble navigating the world as a single guy. The "Dram" episode had me laughing so hard. Without giving anything away, Robin Duke plays the best TV mom I've ever seen.
