    It feels immature, under baked and frankly annoying. I did not understand the shows humor or empathize with our protagonist in any way. It's disappointing because it's a show that has the hallmarks of something I should love: a broken lead,offbeat humor and fleabag adjacent tones.

    As a portrait of a person trying to slap a convincing smile on depression it is nuanced, rich, touching and occasionally funny. Not all the time, for that is not the way with the modern "sad-com"; a couple of times it was really quite bleak and flat. ... Bea, who two years ago wrote a beautiful article about her father's suicide when she was three years old, is a talent. To star alongside Horgan, who tends to steal most scenes in comedy, and shine isn't a mean feat.

    The writing is sharp and well observed, probing the fault lines between small talk and real problems.

    This is a comedy about mental health that deftly preys on your fears and pricks your sympathies. At the same time there was a gratifyingly high gag rate.
