Avy Kaufman the casting coordinator does excellent work - so, I doubt that it was her fault. The directors are very capable. I'll have to assume it was a situation of where you have a couple of dozen "producers" involved with a project and things just got of of control. Why it was consistently just uncomfortable and awkward male acting - is odd.
    The directing seems very good (it is hard to tell just looking at a finished product). The editing was excellent. The script was a little uneven at times - and, I guess a good director and editor maybe would have smoothed that out have they had enough time/money to do so.

    So I read some reviews by professional critics that really liked this film series. They don't even mention the male actors. It's like the critic watched the first several episodes and didn't even realize that there were male actors in the script. So, I guess I'm missing something. Regardless, it looks like you must somehow ignore the existence of the male actors in order to really enjoy this film series.    … Expand

    Sorry for You Loss plays out a lot like grief itself--it’s meandering, unexpected, complicated, dark, occasionally funny, and puts everything around it into sharp relief. It’s not what you would expect on Facebook, but it is definitely worth seeking out.

    It’s the kind of series that’s instantly so fully formed, so funny and candid and wrenching right from the start, that you almost question the emotional propriety of it all.

    Sorry For Your Loss is a gem of a show. With a cast this impressive--in Olsen, an Avenger; in Tran, a Star Wars alum; in McTeer, a renowned Oscar nominee--a series this well-executed would ordinarily be a marquee entry in the fall TV season.
