Daddies and Darlings is a niche site with a focus on the older dude, younger chick niche. Generally speaking mature sites focus on mature ladies so this is the mirror image of that. The guest tour has sample pics and video trailers which do show what style of shoots are available to members.
The Goods:
- Original Hardcore Videos. The main selling point here is that the site has exclusive hardcore movies. In addition to the older guy and younger girl emphasis the other aspect that stands out is the Eastern European performers. There are also a few shoots featuring outdoor sex which is another niche some surfers enjoy.
- Full-Movie Files & Clips. The videos are available in WMV full movie files and clips. The full file is in one quality level and the clips actually have a couple levels. In addition to downloadable files there are in-browser streams too.
- Network Access. Daddies and Darlings is part of the 1 Pass for All Sites network which means memberships includes access to other niche sites. These include other hardcore sites with similar European performers.
The Bads:
- Very Small Amt of Content. While the average length of the videos is solid at around 30 minutes each the problem is simply that there are so few episodes. I'm not sure whether or not growth will ever come, that's something we'll have to follow through on with future reviews.
- No Real Updates Since Launch. This goes hand-in-hand with my previous point about the size of the site. Amazingly all of the content is dated on the site but the dates all fall within 3 days of each other. I assume this is about the time that the site went online. The lack of new material definitely hurts the value.
- Short Clips, Too Many Per Vid. While there are both clips and full-movie files I do have to take issue with the clips breakdown. The movies are broken into 15-20 clips each. Finding some middle road would help with maybe 5 or so clips but they've stuck to the extremes: short clips or the whole movie.
Conclusion:
The older dude, younger girl combo is probably a niche that has a decent audience. However there are obviously some key items that do nothing but hold the site back. The lack of overall content with no updates is things that can't be overcome. The network access and original content only go so far.

Daddies and Darlings continues to be a part of the 1 Pass For All Sites Network and the basic set-up has remained the same. The main Good and Bad bullet points from my initial review are still applicable although the updates is something to discuss. They have added a handful of new episodes in 2009 so they do seem to be making additions which is a good sigh. Still the pace is slow and long gaps are a part of the historical record here so in the larger picture updates are still inconsistent. The older guy and younger girl style episodes are still the most distinguishing characteristic of the site and it’s probably best to view the site as one part of the larger network collection.
Score increased from 69.0 to 70.0.
