Season 2 Review:
Like thigh-high go-go boots, there is only so far something like the ’60s-era showbiz comedy “Funny Woman” can go before its joyousness ankles, as they say in the trades. The good news about season 2 is that the Britcom has plateaued, figuratively speaking, just above the knee. .... “Funny Woman” is Ms. Arterton’s show, and counter to many shows built around a principal character—those in which the comedy relies on supporting players—Sophie is the funniest person in whatever room the show finds itself.

Season 1 Review:
The fixation is really on her [Gemma Arterton's] performance in the astonishing “Funny Woman,” a sort of sitcom about a sitcom and a beautiful woman’s triumph over presumptions about beautiful women. Set in the ’60s, it is, in a sense, a reverse “Mrs. Maisel.” It is also one of the more surprising things to find on PBS.
