Can't Cope, Won't Cope

Just finished season 2 at one go. Although Aisling was annoying till the end, but the show itself was pretty relatable to me who's passing the late 20s crisis. Can't wait for season 3.

ON THE SURFACE THIS IS A STORY ABOUT TWO YOUNG WOMEN WHO CAN'T GET THEIR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT SOMETIMES. UNDERNEATH THEY ARE BOTH CAPABLE AND COMPETENT BUT CAN'T GROW UP. IT'S A BIT OF A STATEMENT WHETHER TRUE OF ANY PARTICULAR GENERATION OR NOT IS FOR YOU TO DECIDE. IT'S ALSO A FUN CHAOTIC DRUNKEN PARTY SOMETIMES. BOTH AISLING AND DANIELLE ARE INTERESTING CHARACTERS AND THE ACTING IS EXCELLENT. SEANA KERSLAKE REMINDS ME OF A YOUNG SCARLETT JOHANSEN AND POSSIBLY A BETTER ACTRESS. I ACTUALLY WATCHED THIS TWICE OVER THE SPAN OF 3 YEARS AND REALLY ENJOYED IT EVEN MORE THE SECOND TIME BECAUSE I HAD NO EXPECTATIONS ABOUT WHERE IT WAS GOING AND THOROUGHLY ENJOYED IT. SHEILA MOYLETTE WAS CREEPY GOOD. ART CAMPION WAS FUNNY AS ALWAYS AND PLAYED A LITTLE DIFFERENT CHARACTER THAN HIS USUAL. WATCH IT FOR FUN WITH NO EXPECTATIONS AND YOU WILL ENJOY IT.

If you'd like to watch a girl drink and be hungover for a few hours, this is the show for you. Little storytelling takes place, and what is there doesn't work to further any sort of plot. If this had been longer I would have stopped watching, but it's only 12 20-minute episodes.

Just discovered this on BBC iplayer as I was desperate to find something to watch. I'm a long time out of Ireland so was prepared for some cringeful 'sure and begorrah' sentimental rubbish. Not so. Having watched the first two episodes I am looking forward to the rest. It starts off with two young women setting out in life.One works for an investment brokerage and the other is an art student. They are chronic boozers and don't take life too seriously. Drink leads them to make 'poor choices' and they are flying by the seat of their pants. The scenes in the club where they are drunk off their faces are so credible and they are all for having another drink.Also the inter office gossip and competition is farcical but has an edge to it. That's what makes it so watchable...we can see things will not always be so easy...

It takes a few episodes to take off, but this is a good watch. Such a similar thing happened to me and my old best friend. Quite a comfort to see I'm not the only one! It's realistic too which I love
