I loved this series! It left me wanting more! I often recall it fondly and am so sad that there are no more episodes to see other than the short two seasons created.

I think it is a creative storyline to have the son of death come and work at the house of this older lady and he is so quirky and silly he really shakes things up.

I thought it was endearing how much Mulberry comes to care for this older woman and how he can't bring himself to take her life as his dad keeps insisting.

I am disappointed with how it ended abruptly without any proper closure.

I really wish that people responsible for creating series would respect the viewers that have invested so many hours watching and give them at least some closure.

This series ended right in the middle of it. It's very sad. The good news is the entire series is on youtube - so check it out!

*If you are a fan of the series, I highly recommend you read the discussion thread titled "Theme" wherein there is some discussion re. the catchy theme song and how lovely that the composer comes into the thread and fills us in on some insights.

It was sung sweetly by the main actor and long after watching the series, I still recall this song fondly.

I also read a discussion thread where people were discussing the wife of the husband employed in the house as they changed actresses in this role from season 1 to 2. Some felt season 2 wife wasn't as good.

I'd say she was fine as an actor however, since they made their unhappy marriage such a huge focus in season 1, I feel it should have carried on in season 2.

The new actress wasn't able to portray the same nastiness towards her husband and they seemed to suddenly be too lovey dovey = unbelievable. The new couple didn't have the same chemistry so in that sense, I'd say season 1's wife was much better as it was believable angst and tension between those two.
