I binge watched this one weekend.For a show was a really dumb premise it's actually good!imagine if the kid from the sixth sense grew up to be a lazy bum. if instead of suspense and fear he's totally over it and just muddling to get by. Then you get Deadbeat, it's funny and quirky with enough humor to keep you interested.The series also knows what it is, a short 10-12 episode series you'll binge watch one day when you have nothing to do and with that in mind it keeps entertained throughout be it was the "never going to happen" love interest or the "big lump with the heart" hero that surviving on pure luck. if you have some free time give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

I just started watching this HULU original I refer to as "Sixth Sense for Slackers"...LOLThe series follows Kevin Pacalioglu (Tyler Labine), a medium for hire, who attempts to solve various ghosts' unresolved problems, so that they can move on to a final resting place, occasionally with the help of his best friend and drug dealer, Roofie. I've seen Labine in several movies and TV series over the past few years. I especially liked the short-lived Fox series "Sons of Tucson". I've only seen a couple episodes of this so far, and I've laughed enough to give it a marginal recommendation, but only if you're into that sorta slacker sense of humor that seems to follow just about anything Labine is involved with-?? LOL

I don't usually comment TV series, but this one had so obviously fake positive reviews that I had to act. I watch a lot of crap and I make it my point of watching them to the end. If I can. Deadbeat was so not humorous, so annoying, so disrespectful (to me, the viewer, I mean, not possibly fun disrespect) that I could not watch it. I stopped it dead (pardon the pun) and deleted all episodes after the first ten minutes.I won't bother discussing the plot. The actor playing Dale in the Tucker and Dale movie and the girl from Hitlist UK on MTV before from you were born are starring. The first episode is about a ghost that can't pass on because he died a virgin. Need I say more? The sad part is that I really liked Dale and Tucker vs Evil.Avoid this as you would the plague.

I was laying in bed with a virus and I turned to Hulu to keep me entertained. I came across Deadbeat and now I am hooked! This series is cleverly written and the casting is superb! I love Cat Deely but I would never think she could ever pass as a villain because she is such a Love. She pulls it of perfectly. Tyler Labine completely makes his character believable even with his over-the-top, lovable raunchiness and his Archie Bunker like vocabulary. I have never seen Lucy DeVito in anything but now I love her thanks to Deadbeat. Brandon T. Jackson as Roofie... ahhhh! You just want to hug him. He is awesome! The story lines are so off-the-chain hilarious and so clever but what makes them really great is the ridiculous nonsense that is strategically placed at every turn. it is my new favorite so please....do not let this series stop!
