La méthode Kominsky

How you can describe the comedy as 'hysterical' is beyond me - it's not. It's wry and gentle and drips with pathos with the occasional belly-laugh. The pathos isn't only limited to the ageing juveniles, either -the youngsters in the acting class exhibit their fair share of sympathy- deserving angst. But as a parallel narrative for someone who is pushing the same.age as the two leads, it scores heavily. Not much around for our demographic, but there's this. Good work, Lorre, and good work Arkin and Douglas.

Wish it was 30 episodes... fun, great writing, adult stuff.

Finally a thoughtful well written comedy WITH NO LAUGH TRACK! Thank you thank you thank you!

The writing in this show is excellent, the actors are one of the best ensembles for a long time.

The honesty and situations reflect a side of life rarely, if ever done in media of recent times, probably Douglas's finest work in a long time, really good viewing.

While Michael Douglas is the acting teacher, it's Alan Arkin who delivers the master class in comedic timing. Delightful all round based on four episodes.
