A good book for its time
It takes a while to get into this book mostly because of the narrative voice. It is the narrative voice that makes the book as good as it is. Written in 1st person, the unreliable narrator fools the reader into just how uneducated he is (he did write a book after all). Huck has bags of common sense but relies on Tom for silliness. There is however, a lot of innocence in Huckleberry and a huge desire for freedom but I do think he secretly wants to civilised. The last few chapters of the book are more like a children's adventure story showing the child like Huckleberry compared to the innocent and uncivilised boy at the start of the book. I liked this. I enjoyed the ending very much.

This was a great series to pass time. An easy viewing, full of comedic lines and dark humour. Some of which was relatable, however worth watching the series 'Children's Hospital' first, as Medical Police is a spin off from that series. To make sense of the series, as when I saw a Doctor dressed as as a weird clown, I couldn't make sense why. It wasn't very clear and I had to Google it to make sense of it. However I would highly recommend this series to have a laugh. I would consider this series similar to that of 'Scrubs'. The actors were great together and storyline although sometimes lengthy leading to a bore at times, it was also gripping and exciting, as well as hilarious!
