My MM-loving (and basically all things on Britbox-loving) self should love the show, but I just couldn't get into it. Even my mother, who has yet to give MM a chance, got a Doc Martin box set leant from a friend who loves it and thought my parents would. The characters and the plots just didn't grab me, and there was no hot male lead to make up for it. Maybe I would like it if I gave myself more of a chance. I could imagine being lulled by the coziness of it all.
I love how you point out the character's lack of appeal make so many of the plotlines flat-out not make sense. That seems to happen a lot with these British sleepers.
"there was no hot male lead to make up for it" extremely the case. There is the chef character, a Ryan Philippe type, but pickings otherwise are slim, and I cannot convince myself to find the main character physically or otherwise appealing.
