      Season 1 – Moone Boy

      2012 Comedy List
      88% Tomatometer 8 Reviews 92% Audience Score Fewer than 50 Ratings Based on actor Chris O'Dowd's childhood experiences in a small Irish town and adapted from O'Dowd's starring role in "Little Crackers," "Moone Boy" tells the story of young Martin Moone and the adventures he has with his friend, Sean Murphy (O'Dowd). However, Sean isn't a normal school-age pal; he exists only in Martin's imagination. But he's still able to help Martin survive as the youngest in a flighty family that includes his parents, Debra and Liam, and a trio of loud sisters. Martin's fantasticl imagination surges in a variety of animations from the Oscar-nominated studio Cartoon Saloon, as well as in ridiculous schemes he creates -- against Sean's better judgment.

      Tim Goodman Hollywood Reporter One of the most charming series on TV -- or, in this case, Hulu. Jul 23, 2013 Full Review Phil Dyess-Nugent AV Club It leaves most of what passes for domestic TV comedy choking in its dust. Rated: A Jul 12, 2013 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Moone Boy is the most charming new television comedy to arrive in America this year. Jul 9, 2013 Full Review Ashley Spurgeon Nashville Scene Part Wonder Years, part Malcolm in the Middle -- and dare I suggest a dash of Lizzy McGuire vis a vis Drop Dead Fred? - Moone Boy has something for the whole family. Nov 22, 2021 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz Everyone else from 10 to 100 can soak up the pithy universal observations on family life, school, religions and obsessions and a 12-year-old boy's hilarious, somewhat warped view of the world.

      Psychicmedium T Clean family fun and very funny! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/22 Full Review Audience Member I love this show! It is worth watching. Every character is well written and down right funny. I believe it is somewhat based on Chris O'Dowd's own childhood experiences. It gets a bit awkward at times, but it is hilarious. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Great comedy, good likeable characters and relatible Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Clever, comedic explorations of fragile parents and misguided teenagers that converge at the innocent musings of a 12-year-old boy.
