Moone Boy (2012)

Ireland and the United Kingdom, Best Comedy Series 2013. Chris O'Dowd's warmest work: he created and co-wrote this comedy and plays Seán Murphy, the imaginary friend of 12-year-old Martin Moone. Martin grows up in Boyle, County Roscommon, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, in a chaotic family where Seán is the only one who really listens. It is gentle, silly and quietly touching, and an easy one to share with older kids. Three series and 18 episodes, made for the British channel Sky One.
