    I liked this for the first few episodes of season 1, but quickly tired of it. Two words, Sharon Horgan. She's not funny. She's mean-spirited and shrill, and pretty much abusive to her husband. A kid is not a reason to get married (I have three, but it's not why I got married, but it apparently contributed to the divorce according to my POS ex...sorry. Had to vent).

Rob Delaney is great and I appreciate his character and humor. He's definitely an every man and all four of my stars go to him. His character would be much better off dumping the mom and just paying support. Better yet, put that kid up for adoption before she infects it with whatever disease makes you that ****… Expand

    Under the layers, if any, it follows another regulatory pattern of happenings but, for the most, prioritizes its subjects, humor, and our attraction towards this married couple as an added bonus.

    Enjoyed tremendously the humor, sometimes a bit off color, but very real. Relaxing and fun.

    So, I've noticed how highly rated Catastrophe has been over the last view years. Based on the reviews and other sources of information I just didn't think it was something I would enjoy. But, not being able to find anything anything else to watch, I finally gave in and decided to give Catastrophe a try.

Based on the reviews and other sources of information I just didn't think it was something I would enjoy. But, not being able to find anything anything else to watch, I finally gave in and decided to give Catastrophe a try. Given that it was receiving scores in the 90s from most professional reviewers and in the 80s from non-professionals I felt I should at least watch a couple of episodes.

    And - yes, it is excellent quality entertainment with some interesting thoughts within the context of current events. I think a person needs to situate their expectations within the context of 2015-2019 British comedy-drama to best appreciate it.

    I should point out that for what ever reason - I do not rate comedy as highly as drama. I guess to a certain extent I feel it really does not make since to rate comedy and drama against each other on the same scale. So to clarify, if I was to rate Catastrophe against other comedy-drama efforts I would give a score (within that context) more like 8.5 instead of 7.    … Expand

    Catastrophe goes out on a high with a season full of drama and plenty of laughs.

    A strong final season. Follows the same formula as the 3 previous seasons and it still works. Good time to wind it up.

    It is as warmly vicious, and viciously warm, as it has always been, and its acid tone cuts through with as much originality as it did in 2015.

    The fourth and final season falls somewhat from the series peak of Season 3 but still bids a splendid farewell to Rob and Sharon on an elegiac but thrilled-to-keep-carrying-on note.

    Exceptional British dramedy. ... Delaney and Horgan give their deepest and most moving performances yet in the series finale.
