Single Drunk Female

I wouldn't say she is a realistic alcoholic. Especially because she looks pretty all the time and they just talk about the sickness she has had. That's a difficult part for me to get over.

They do dig into some things that a person with alcohol addiction would have to do in recovery. So that is a plus for a network television show.

I think it is funny that people are saying this show is "woke". I don't really say that portion. It does have a diverse cast but I did not feel like that was shoved in your face. Unless you are really uncomfortable with some people existing in general but that's a you issue.

I like sitcoms that keep me hooked, thats what it does. You really root for the main character. Great character development. Although someone did leave a rating that said 'alcoholism lite', which is true. If you're looking to see someone struggle with recovery in alcoholism, eh. Although they do reference the program a bunch.

I have two good reasons for giving this a shot. Sofia Black from The Mick and Ally Sheedy from The Breakfast Club. So far it's been way better than I expected, considering the constant stream of let-downs that come out of network tv these days.

I'll probably stick with it till mid season and hopefully it won't disappoint.

UPDATE: it is mid season point. Downgraded my rating to 6. My two good reasons are not enough for going further with this show. Too much resembling a modern day college campus (millennial stereotypes embraced to cringe point).

I'm only two episodes in. So far I like the show, it's promising. Let's see how it develops. The topic - sobriety - is important and interesting. It's definitely more a drama than a comedy. The setting and the mood is realistic and respectful, neither overly dramatic nor ridiculous nor sappy. The actors so far are very good.

If you're at all interested in the topic give it a go!

Started watching this because the title was really alluring and I thought it'd be a really fun approach for a show. It's not that funny so I wouldn't label it as a comedy sitcom but I don't know what other genre you'd put it in, I still think it's pretty decent though. It's interesting enough for you to watch, but not enough to get excited for the next episode. It's not gonna be the next big thing on tv, it could be funnier but I still like it. I just realized I use "but" quite a lot in my reviews but who cares.
