    It feels at times like being pounded by gigantic dialogue boulders of information. Even so, this is a staunch David and Goliath homage to quiet fortitude triumphing over corporate chicanery, and well worth anyone’s time.

    The sweet-faced Jones — if you loved him in “Detectorists” you should love him here, in a part not a million miles away — stars as Alan, the quietly stubborn leader of the resistance, and the hub that connects the series’ several stories. .... Above all, “Mr. Bates vs The Post Office” is an indictment of bureaucratic arrogance and the familiar reluctance of institutions to admit, and when admitted, to rectify, mistakes.

    The hero here, as one can assume from the title, is Alan Bates, played by a wonderfully measured Toby Jones. .... Righteous indignation is the central mission of "Mr. Bates vs. the Post Office," and one can become anxious despising characters as much as one will during this four-part procedural.
