Mr. Sloane

The first time I saw Nick Frost was in Shaun of the Dead and he instantly became my favorite. Via other movies with Simon Pegg and The Boat that Rocked I made it to Mr. Sloane and I have no regrets. The series was entertaining on both fronts, comedy as well as drama. Nick Frost did an excellent job playing the title character, and I enjoyed it even more thanks to the awesome retro vibe that was maintained throughout the whole show. (23/04/2018)

The first episode introduced me to the tragicomic character Jeremy Sloan, whom I immediately knew I would find extremely likable. The creators managed to create a functioning retro atmosphere of the 1960s, and I also enjoyed the flashbacks from the protagonist's past. I am looking forward to the next episodes. (23/04/2018)

I really enjoyed the second meeting with Jeremy Sloan, his ability to gain and lose a job within a few moments really got to me, as well as his effortless initiation of a conversation about ironmongery. So far, the series is developing in the right way and I hope it will continue like this. (23/04/2018)

Hmmm, well I don't know, either I have the episodes on my DVD divided differently, or the content doesn't match well for the fourth episode. The lightning-fast organized bachelor party and its consequences were great, but this time I was most intrigued by the mix-up of mail deliveries and Mr. Pitman's fate. // "You can't go a day without gambling."

As I found out in the previous episode, I have a version with differently arranged parts, so brownies didn't happen until now and I couldn't appreciate it any other way than with five stars. The creators once again continued with returns to Sloan's memories and I must say they succeeded. (23/04/2018)

The fifth episode brought a serious, dramatic motif to the plot, which surprisingly didn't bother me at all because it gave the involved characters a new dimension. What was really annoying me, though, were the repetitive visits of Mrs. Wyndham, which I would easily skip completely. (23/04/2018)

The sixth episode worked very well for me. There was a significant decrease in humor, the whole episode was more on a dramatic wave this time, and maybe that's why I enjoyed it so much. Jeremy Sloane beautifully demonstrated how to lose women and "friends" in one episode, yet still strive for a brighter future. (23/04/2018)
