Brief synopsis of Huff - Season 1

Set in Portland, Oregon, Huff centers on the life of 40-something good-guy psychiatrist Dr. Craig "Huff" Huffstodt (Hank Azaria) suffering from a midlife crisis. Huff's world includes his lovely but complicated wife, Beth (Paget Brewster), a teenage son named Byrd (Anton Yelchin) who is mature beyond his years, and Huff's overprotective and domineering mother, Izzy (Blythe Danner), who just so happens to live in the guesthouse. Complicating matters is Huff's best friend Russell Meeks (Oliver Platt), a fearless attorney with somewhat questionable ethics.

Rated - 4 starsExcellent

This series is dark, disturbing and outstanding. Hank Azaria is wonderful as the lead role and his supporting cast, especially Oliver Platt make this enthralling viewing. The script is intelligent and I can't wait for the release of the second series.

Rated - 5 starsGive it a go - you'll get hooked!

A customer from leeds , 28/03/2006

The pilot is a bit of a slow burner so do give this more than 20 minutes - it will be worth it, I promise! If you like Sopranos, Carnivale, Dead Like Me, Six Feet Under or other series of this ilk then this is definitely one that will suck you in.

If you havnt seen this intelligent and enjoyable comedy drama, you have to see it now. Great performances mixed with pacey and witty scripts make this the must see of the year.

Rated - 4 starsSo much more than Moe

Emma from Heswall , 01/04/2006

Hank Azaria, better known as Moe in The Simpsons, steps out of the world of animation and in to the starring role of this series which has yet to hit the screens here in the UK.

His character, Huff, is a self-obsessed psychiatrist with a problem family and an imaginary Polish hobo in tow. Home life is a tangle of rasping relationships between a demanding WASPish Mother, an increasingly career-minded wife and a scarily mature son. Oliver Platt is brilliant as the revolting, but charming, drug-taking, beer-swilling family lawyer-cum-best friend and Lara Flynn Boyle puts in a great cameo as a seriously disturbed beauty.

Masterful stuff - if only we were producing shows this great in the UK these days!

A customer from Halifax , 20/08/2008

Absolutely fantastic series. Who's counselling who? Very funny and very poignant. The more you watch the more you see. Great photography in the way scenes are linked. A definate 'must see'. Hope there's a season 2.
