Post Holiday Blues Streaming 25' - Deli Boys - Season One

Deli Boys on Disney+ kicks off with Arshad "Baba" Dar, a Pakistani-American immigrant and head of the successful deli chain ABC Deli, is struck by a stray golf ball on a family golf trip and killed. 

Following the funeral, his sons Raj (Saagar Shaikh) and Mir (Asif Ali) visit the headquarters of DarCo, ABC Deli's parent company, in a bid to have Mir instated as CEO. Their pitch is interrupted by a raid by the FBI, who arrest interim CEO Lucky (Poorna Jagannathan). 

Agent Mercer informs the brothers of DarCo's two-decade history of tax fraud among other white-collar crimes. 

All company accounts are frozen and Mir and Raj's possessions are confiscated. With no other sources of income, they return to the first ABC Deli, Baba's sole business not owned by DarCo and the only deli still operating. 

Lucky arrives and shoots a staff member, Hamza, in front of the brothers before advising them to leave town. At Raj's insistence, she shows them a video from their father in which he bequeaths the family business to them. Lucky reveals that DarCo is a front for organised crime far beyond what the FBI knows about and blackmails them both into participating. 

Later, Hamza wakes and flees the store pursued by Raj and Mir. Mercer begins her surveillance.

The ten part comedy series stars, alongside Ali, Shaikh & Jagannathan, Alfie Fuller, & Brian George. 

The Hulu season starting streaming early-March to positive critical reception.

With the crew attempting to take up his mantle in the underworld, all hell breaks loose during this fresh new comedy series.

Deli Boys is another new comedy series, that tries to push boundaries with loads of swearing, the odd bit of violence but this time with Pakistani-American leads.

It is nice to see a some diversity on screen, however the jokes are mostly the same as recent comedy TV series.

So it's the winter TV catch up period. With so many choices, so many streaming services, Max, Binge, Stan, Paramount+, Disney+ (where Deli Boys streams), ABC iView, SBS on Demand, so there are so many watchlists that I have been adding to the last few months.

So in the new series, next quarter, expect loads of catch up series.

Until then, see you soon.
