Quality content all the way through. Dark comedy thats also sweet, thoughtful and weird. I wish some characters had been given a bit more space to develope but the next season seems promising for it. This series is probably not for everyone.Quality content all the way through. Dark comedy thats also sweet, thoughtful and weird.

Excelente! Merece el reconocimiento que se debe. Muestra el empoderamiento de pequeñas pero grandes minorías.

This is an awesome show. At first I wasn’t sure if it would deal with suicide tastefully, but in the end I really thought the show dealt with a lot of different issues in a fairly respectful way.

Decided it was entertaining with just enough highs (Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Lange, Zoey Deutch, David Corenswet, Martina Navratalova's cameo) to offset the lows (the clueless adoptive father, the main character being "haunted" by a dead classmate, really awful clueless twin siblings) to keep us engaged. As it meandered to what we expected to be an amiable conclusion, the miraculous Judith Light and Bette Midler appeared in the last episode as an arrogantly complacent poltician with a secret and her jaded chief of staff to transform the series into something off the charts good.
