Due South has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available on Crave. 4 seasons means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. With 79 viewer ratings on TMDB, this is not a title flying under the radar. Paul Gross is the obvious draw, but the whole ensemble earns its laughs. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Crave.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Due South is worth clearing space for. Due South does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Constable Benton Fraser, an officer of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, is attached to the Canadian consulate but works with Chicago Police Department to solve crimes. Paul Gross and Beau Starr lead a cast that never overplays a joke. 4 seasons (1994–1999) gave the story room most shows never get. Due South earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It rarely drops the ball, and when it does, it recovers fast.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Due South. The Good Guys is the obvious comparison, but Due South earns its own place alongside it. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single week. Paul Gross is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.

Due South wrapped up in 1999, created by Paul Haggis — and 4 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
