Happy!

An injured hitman befriends a kidnapped kid’s imaginary friend – a perky blue flying unicorn.

This series (airing on Netflix) about an injured hit-man that befriends a kidnapped kid’s imaginary friend – a perky blue flying unicorn is absolutely brilliant. Warning strong imagery and language!!

I found this by pure accident when it popped up in Netflix and first thought it was a kids show with an animated character. How wrong you can be! This is a show about disgraced ex-cop Nick Sax played by Christopher Meloni and it is “bloody” hilarious. I have to warn you there is a lot of strong imagery and language

Nick Sax awakes on a hospital gurney. He’s a hit man, used to be a cop; it’s all part of the job. What’s troubling Sax isn’t his serious injury, it’s the seriously perky flying blue horse. That claims it is the imaginary friend of someone in serious trouble. The horse’s name? Happy, of course. Adapted from a Grant Morrison story. IMDb

The series is based on a graphic novel written by Scotsman Grant Morrison and illustrated by American Darick Robertson and is a detective noir fiction story in which first series (premiered 6 Dec 2017) takes you through a few events that changes Nick Sax life.

It is hard boiled, violent but very funny and well worth a watch. Warning strong imagery and language!
