The show gets you in the feels while laughing the entire way through. The cast is amazing and you grow attached to each character early on. The lessons on life are amazing and really sell the show as one of the best dramedies in the past decade. The show goes over a lot of dark themes with humour in a way that I've never seen in a show before.
Just finished season two and I thought it wouldn't be able to compare but I think season two was even better without having to just rely on the character dynamics. I think the plot lines were intricate and fleshed out. The story also doesn't just rely on Jimmy spiralling and getting better which is what a lot of shows end up doing when they get renewed.

Shrinking was just as good as I had hoped for. First of all, as soon as I saw Harrison Ford and Jason Segal were starring in it I was already going to watch it but then after reading all the positive reviews and watching the trailer my excitement grew even more. Well, I just finished it and it not only met my expectations but surpassed them. I'm not saying it's the best show of the year but it's an original, feel good comedy that will make you laugh throughout each episode. I'd definitely recommend this but make sure you give yourself enough time to watch it because you're going to want to binge it as quickly as you can.
And the rest of the show is great, too. Jason Segel is perfectly cast for this script. He has the weird, idiotically confident energy needed for this role. And Jessica is perfect. Her humor is just right for the dialogue. This is the new way of situation dramedies. No real punch lines, just engaging personalities with a pinch of quirk, and family circumstances that are just a little over the line from normal, but still relatable. Of course, Jimmy's behavior as a therapist is completely absurd. You would lose your license immediately. Just impossible. But we allow metaphorical situations in drama. And in this script, we sense a strong purposefulness in the decisions. We have to give the writers the benefit and try to get the gist. For me, it's easy and fun. Other reviewers, apparently, struggled.
This show slaps!! The characters have a lot of growth even in the first and second episode, the jokes are perfectly timed and executed, and all of the actors are doing a superb job! This is one of the best piolet episodes I've seen in quite a while! Harrison Ford does an amazing job in his supporting role and Jason Segal does a wonderful job playing a flawed, damaged character that is trying to be a better person and father. This is one of the best shows I have seen in a while! This show made me laugh like I haven't in a long time. As a psychology student this show is hilarious, and as a theatre student I can appreciate how great the script flows. I cannot understand the negative reviews as this is already one of my favorite shows after only two episodes. I hope the rest is as good!!

Shrinking is one of those rare shows that effortlessly balances laugh-out-loud comedy with deeply emotional storytelling, sometimes within the same scene. Across two seasons, it has proven itself to be not just a great show, but one that sticks with you-like a warm hug in TV form.
The cast is phenomenal across the board, but Jason Segel and Harrison Ford are on another level. Segel brings his signature charm and vulnerability to the role of Jimmy, a therapist struggling with grief, making his journey both hilarious and heartbreakingly real. Meanwhile, Ford-who could have easily phoned it in as the grumpy mentor-delivers one of his best performances in years. His portrayal of Dr. Paul Rhoades is layered, funny, and unexpectedly touching, proving that even legends can still surprise us.
The writing is where Shrinking truly shines. Few shows can take you from crying with laughter to just plain crying in a matter of minutes, but this one does it flawlessly. It captures the messy, beautiful reality of grief, friendship, and healing with a sharp wit and so much heart. Every episode feels like a perfectly crafted mix of humor and humanity.
And once again, Bill Lawrence proves why he's one of the most underrated forces in entertainment. The man does not miss. Scrubs, Ted Lasso, Cougar Town-he knows exactly how to create shows that feel like home, and Shrinking is no exception.
If you haven't watched Shrinking yet, you're missing out on one of the best, most heartfelt comedies in years. It's funny, moving, and just the kind of show the world needs right now.

- TriviaHarrison Ford said, "This mixture of comedy and pathos and really emotional stuff, it gives you a sense of responsibility for the things you're communicating and how you're communicating. I think that that shows up on screen, and it shows up in the work these people do every day and how they do it. I had never done anything like this before and it was like suddenly recognizing what I've always wanted [acting] to be." He told Apple CEO Tim Cook "about the experience that I have with people who come up to me and say something about the show. And then I get to say something... and then they turn around and walk away. They do not want a picture. They do not want an autograph. They do not want to do anything. They just want to communicate that this means something to them. And it's an extraordinary experience in my life. That is a real thing. And it means the world to me."
