Product ReviewsRepublic of Doyle: The Complete Series (DVD, 2016, Canadian)

Great scenery, interesting stories and charming people to spend time with

St John's, Newfoundland is the outermost port town on the Atlantic side of the island, bordering on the North Atlantic oilfields. This brings a hard-boiled, transient population to a small-town seaport, now emerging into an oil boomtown. Conflicts are sure to arise as transient oil workers, and their followers of entrepreneurs, hustlers and con men and women mix with the locals and disturb the locals' customs.
Stage set, we meet proprietors of a local family business: Doyle and Doyle, Detective Services, a father and son team, whose crime-solving methods are as different as their personalities. Son, Alan, is charming and irreverent, while father, Malachy, is a little more old school, but clever, with his skill set. This family's business involves other family members as Alan and Malachy each deal w their own clients in small-town St John's, including stalkers, jail breakers, bikers and bounty-hunters, and even a runaway bride.
We get great scenery, interesting stories and charming people to spend time with. We are presented w clever detective work, tense situations, frustrations, comedy and even a pint of ale at the end of the day w family members and friends. Altogether, a well-spent hour w each episode. Enjoy... Read full review...

A Prejudiced Review in a Good Way

I have to admit I'm prejudiced before I start....because I grew up in Newfoundland and I fit right in with the characters and the geographical settings,language ,etc. In fact I'm pretty sure the lead actor is a distant cousin of mine. So yes,I really enjoyed the series,but yes,I admit I'm prejudiced in favor of the show. For someone from another part of the world, you do get the flavor of modern Newfoundland life and with some private detectives thrown in for good measure.Read full review...

Quirky, fun private eye show that keeps you laughing and keeps you wanting for more.

Absolutely amazing series! I ran across it a couple weeks ago when checking shows on tv and started to watch it. WOW, it's such a great mix of comedy with crazy private eye cases. The cast is wonderful and I am so happy I found this great show and that there were 5 seasons but I could have watch 5 more. Once I saw the one on tv I bought the series and binged watch until it was over. I wish they had made at least that much more. 5 stars to a wonderful quirky, fun, PI show. Highly recommend.Read full review...

Worth binging!

Republic of Doyle is a rare combination of humor, mystery and action with a cast of excellent actprs, filmed in beautiful Newfoundland Canada. 77 episodes, and you will be sorry they didn't make more.
Warning: It is an addictive pleasure!
We started watching when it was on Netflix, but half way through, Netflix stopped running it. It was worth the $45 we spent buying the whole series.so we could see the last 2 1/2 seasons of the 6.

One of the Best Series Ever!!!

This TV series has it all: Exciting mystery, sparing comedy between the Doyle's and Romance that keeps you craving more from episode to episode. Great cast with just the right person for each role. Jake Doyle and Detective Leslie are the perfect match, even if they don't always admit it...Read full review...
