As A Rule...

As a rule, I tend not to like the one man shows, particular from the Irish.  Not to be mean, but they nearly always involved two of the following three things:
.
1 - The Potato Famine
2 - Priestly Abuse
3 - The Drunk Family and depresses / disappointed parents
.
But Who's Your Daddy? doesn't follow this well worn path (well, it does have #3, but mainly for
comic relief).  It is the story of an Irish Hollywood actor and his trip to Uganda, where he meets his son.  Honestly, he decides this young child of three is his son immediately upon meeting him - and sets off to adopt the boy.  Not an easy task for a semi-employed, bi-sexual, single actor who is mainly in debt.
.
The employed part is helped as he is cast as a recurring robot looking for a soul in Stargate Atlantis, but the rest of the story is still trouble.
.
It was funny and I liked it.  My review.

PS - By the picture, you can see it ends well.  Hiking in the Hollywood Hills.
