My Hero Season 6

My Hero Season 6 has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available. The show says what it needs to say in a single season, no filler. A 6/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Watch it for James Dreyfus — stay for everyone else around them. Put it on tonight and see for yourself.

My Hero Season 6 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. My Hero Season 6 does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. The sixth and final series of British television comedy My Hero ran from July 21, 2006 to September 10, 2006. This series featured eight episodes, and saw the majority of the main cast reprise their characters from Series five, with the exception of George Sunday, who decided to leave the series after episode one. He was replaced by actor James Dreyfus, who took the character of George Sunday into the new alias, George Monday. James Dreyfus and Emily Joyce lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2006. What keeps My Hero Season 6 from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

My Hero Season 6 is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. James Dreyfus sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
