Season 2 Review: Rarely is a TV show simultaneously as blistering funny as it is delicately devastating but Feel Good – sublimely – is both. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Hilariously crafted, thrillingly paced, and brimming with the kind of raw honesty rarely found on TV, “Feel Good” will certainly make you feel, if not necessarily good, then something refreshingly real. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Martin and Hampson have made a delicate comedy and a tender love story, grafting both on to an undercurrent of pain, without ever being maudlin about it. Feel Good is a beautiful achievement, kind, human, as clever as it is funny. Read full review

Season 1 Review: What it lacks in rom-com purity it makes up for in substance. I found myself rooting for the couple to stay together and also get the hell apart. It’s a buoyant, bingeable comedy that’s worth arguing about. Trust me when I say: It feels good enough. Read full review

Season 2 Review: The new episodes of “Feel Good” are on a par with the old ones — textured, funny, a bit dramatic, and fitted with a clear theme: trauma and recovery from it. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Martin was the revelation of the first season, an inexperienced lead who immediately displayed astonishing on-screen ease with both comedy and pathos. The second season somehow amplifies the two extremes of the performance perfectly. ... These episodes rush by, perhaps too quickly, with an abruptly resolved series finale. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Although this opener had plenty of charm, it wasn’t quite funny enough. There were decent lines about Guernsey, eggs (“I call them the devil’s orbs”) and penetrating somebody’s inner sanctum (you can imagine the rest), but the gaps between gags were simply too long.

This is a brave,funny show and I'm so glad that Netflix took it on from Channel 4 for season 2 in order to complete the story. Mae Martin is a revalation and Charlotte Richie yet again proves what a superb actor she is-I hope we see her in many more tv shows and films.

With everything and its entanglements, the series remains at the level of the first season.
