Ken and Lorna Thompson are proud parents who are looking forward to seeing their daughter, Rachel, again upon her return to England after spending a year abroad. Their joy quickly turns to dismay, though, when she introduces them to her new husband, Cuckoo. As is befitting such a name, Cuckoo is a little too crazy for the elder Thompsons' tastes; he is an American hippie who is full of outlandish New Age ideas. Rachel and Cuckoo live in her parents' house until he heads out to attend university, which should be good news for his in-laws, right? Not so much. After his departure, a mysterious stranger, Dale Ashbrick, appears in their lives, bringing his own brand of craziness.

Daisy Wyatt Independent (UK) It is hard to describe Cuckoo as anything but wildly offbeat while comfortingly British at the same time. Apr 4, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Regal R 70/100 - not a bad show they kept it going and it didnt get tiresome yet. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Probably one of the best comedy series of the year for me. At first, I didn't really like the recast of Rachel or the absence of Cuckoo, but then I realised that the series is still enjoyable, better even. Taylor Lautner's character, Dale, is ridiculously naive, but he has good intentions, he does everything for his "family". Personally, I liked the Dylan's struggle for his on-off girlfriend, Zoe, there were a lot of hilarious scenes involved. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
