    My new favorite show on TV. Loved the first season and the season two premiere confirmed my love for it. Well acted and superbly written, it'll make you laugh and cry at the same time, which is super hard to do. Can't wait to watch the rest.

    A rare show that manages to succeed in making you laugh hysterically and contemplate the harsh reality of life at the same time. The premiere episode of Season two Getting On doesn't miss a beat and continues to deliver the goods.

    It slips into a world you probably never knew (or cared about) and finds a way to make you utterly invested.

    If the hospital staff is desensitized to basic human dignity, the show makes sure its audience never is. [14/21 Nov 2014, p.100]

    This is farce with a heart, shot through with unlikely moments of grace and warmed by an aura of bemused acceptance.
