TV show description:
Based on the graphic novel of the same name from Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson, the Happy! TV show centers on a former cop, Nick Sax (Meloni). Now a hitman, Nick finds himself unmoored in a treacherous world full of murder and meaningless hook-ups. One day, though, his drunken, depressing existence is turned upside down by Happy (Oswalt), an imaginary unicorn.
As a big city police detective, Nick was something of a superstar. After losing everything, he finds himself pretty much on the skids. Now working as a killer for hire, Nick blows what little cash he earns on drugs and booze.
Little Happy is silly, screwy, and persistently positive, which makes him the polar opposite of the snarky, cynical Nick. Together, this unlikely duo is partner up. Can they save the day?
There’s nothing stalwart single mother Amanda Hanson (Senghore) won’t do for her daughter, Hailey (Lorenzo). When the girl is kidnapped, Amanda’s world crumbles. In her fight to bring home her child, this mom must confront her personal demons.
Although he operates a legitimate wine import business, the fiendish Francisco Scaramucci, a.k.a. Mr. Blue (Coster), is far too wealthy to have come by his affluence honestly. It is from his extra-legal initiatives that he really rakes it in. Smoothie (Fischler), is the stooge who serves as Mr. Blue’s interrogator, and his methods truly are madness
Finally, there’s Meredith McCarthy (Mirojnick). A tenacious homicide detective, Merry is used to fighting to make her mark in a man’s world. In order to safeguard her aging mother and hang onto her job, Merry has not been above compromising her values or her honor. As her past comes back to haunt her, will it prove her damnations or her salvation? Stay tuned.
Series Finale:
Episode #18 — Resurrection
Sonny broadcasts his Easter Eggtacular; Sax, Amanda and Happy try desperately to rescue Hailey from meeting a terrible fate.
First aired: May 29, 2019.
What do you think? Do you like the Happy! TV series? Should this TV show have been cancelled or renewed for a third season on Syfy?
I love this show! It’s sick, twisted, and funny as hell. As with the previous comments, it is NOT for kids and should be on at a later time. But I am enjoying the heck out of it. Kudos to both the writing and casting.
I love this show, it is entertaining because it isn’t a typical show. I hope it is renewed.
I like the show. Please DO NOT cancel. Very intertaining.
I love watching this show, please find a easy to have season 2✌
I love it. It cracks me up. It’s so new and different. What an idea!! Bravo!
Mike
This show is awsome, just love it. Really hope they can come up with many seasons
Season 2!!!Love this show however the crazy creatures threw me off a little
This is some of the weirdest $#|+ I’ve seen on tv. I like Meloni, but I think they went a little too far. I hate stuff involving kids.
Well, frankly at first I was appalled. Then after watching episode after episode I was hooked. Still sometimes appalled but can’t stop watching it. I love Christopher Meloni. I do wish his TV Series Surviving Jack would have made it further as that show was so AWESOME!!! That was a sad day when it got cancelled. That show made you LAUGH! Split a gut!!!
Anyway, looking forward to see where Happy! goes. Good luck
The coolest show in a long time. Melloni is perfect as Sax. It’s like seeing a new “Sin City” every week with the added bonus of Happy. I was right about there being more than one imaginary friend and some are not as nice as Happy. There is lots of material to be explored in this totally new original world. HAPPY IS!
I absolutely love this show. I haven’t laughed so hard at any show in years. My husband and I really are enjoying it.
Best show ever!! Never seen anything like it. Never knew Chris Meloni could behave and act like this–he’s great. Keep it going–it’s right up there with Ash vs the Evil Dead. Keep Happy going & keep all the fans HAPPY–way to go Meloni!!
love the show. the show has everything cops to unicorns. keep it coming
I love “Happy!” … One of the freshest ideas on TV and very well acted and written. I love dark comedy and it doesn’t get much darker or funnier than “Happy!”. Meloni and Oswalt are great. Hope to see many more seasons.
This is a wonderful show!! It seems like it no sooner starts and then it is over. We want MUCH MORE!!!!
