Head Case

A film about people I despise, with issues I don't care about.

(This review is too short, so I'll just add that this film was made by melodramatic, empty-headed people for that same audience!)

I just discovered this on Netflix and can't get over how gifted Alexandra Wentworth is as both the writer and lead actor of this hilarious show.

Funny & snappy dialogue paired with all kinds of visual hilarity, makes for a super amusing look into the "therapy" sessions of Hollywood celebs. The guest stars are all deadpan funny & the regular characters each shine in their own nutty ways. Their office interactions are as brilliant as the ones Dr. Goode has with her famous clients & hapless fiancé.

Pay attention to the "art" behind Lola's desk in all its incarnations, including in the opening credits! And don't miss the little hand-written notations in the illustrated opening credits. More Wentworth genius! Warning: The show is *not* for everyone. If you're easily offended by sexually explicit references OR four-letter words, this show is not for you, otherwise, get ready for a wacky ride.

Funny funny woman! ~NN PS: The funniest episode for me was the one with Joel Madden! Brilliant writing *and* acting from start to finish!)

This is a fast pace series that is about a psychologist to the stars, though she is completely unaware. Examples include not realizing that her clients that are former childhood stars are now adults. She lives at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. She gossips about her clients with just about anyone. The psychiatrist who shares an office with her doesn't have any patients and tries to steal hers.

The show is fast paced to fit into the 15 minute format. If they expand to 30 minutes (hope hope hope), I hope they keep the blistering fast pace.

VERY funny!
