A really witty, touching and at times hilarious tale of an Irish-Islamic family living in Bray. Sam (played by the always brilliant and cheeky Baz) is trying to cope with being the sole parent of his three daughters. Into the mix is Sam's Islamic father and his brother, Zain who is the girl's cool uncle but a bit of a narcissist who loves them all, especially the youngest, Nancy. She is a real sweetheart and so cute. Also into the mix are Sam's in-laws, mother-in-law Dymphna, and brother-in-law Cormac. He is a scene-stealer every time he's on screen. Such a sense of humour! He drops verbal hand grenades constantly. He is hilarious.
The series is fictional but reflects real-life, is typically Irish, and typically Baz. He has a knack for making really funny, but family friendly series. That's not to say this series is "clean", far from it. There are a couple of risqué moments in the series but even they are funny. Anyone who has seen Baz's "50 ways to kill your mammy" knows how much Baz values family. It is really obvious in this new series, too. He loves his tv family and it shows clearly how much we depend on family for support in tough times. Faithless is well-worth watching and I really hope a second season is made. The actors are very well cast and give really excellent and heartfelt performances. Ultimately, Faithless is a tale of the Amin family's journey in coping with a huge change thrust upon them whilst simultaneously navigating their own lives. Each character is relatable and has depth. Nice to see "mammy" aka Nancy has a small cameo in this series too. All-in-all a very touching and hilarious series which should definitely be back for another season.
