    Annie's Roommate ruins the show. She's supposed to be the edgy straight forward comedy character but she's just cringy and pure racist attitude.

    Outside from her roommate, Shrill is an entertaining show that follows a woman that never stood up for herself and just allowed things to happen. Her transformation of accepting herself is entertaining. It's a nice little show to watch if you

Aidy nails a lot of expressions and you can feel the discomfort of the situation. Then it cuts to a scene with Annie and her roommate..... Just kidding lol, Shrill is a decent show if you can get past her roommate.

    Even as Shrill hits its stride by the end of the third episode, it never quite reaches the hilarity levels of concurrent comedies such as PEN15 or Big Mouth, which mine the absurd and meta for laughs. But those quibbles feel beside the point, and increasingly less noticeable the more you invest in Annie’s journey, which is more complicated, rollicky and emotional – that is to say, more human – than a straightforward sitcom.

    Shrill is a sharp and genuine investigation of what it means to become yourself.

    A rom-com should, by its very nature, be fun and light without sinking too deep into heavy material; a rom-com can tell a satisfying story in just 90 tight minutes. And it’s easier to build a rom-com around a partially formed character than it is to build a TV show around one—because a rom-com seeks only a happy ending.
