Stella

Stella is one of the best comedies I've seen in recent years. The characters are warm and believable as are the situations they find themselves in. I don't have a favourite character - they all have qualities of their own. Although I do find the relationship between Bobs and Daddy quirky and hilarious. I do worry though that because there is a particular Welsh sense of humour it may may not translate beyond the Welsh or people familiar with the Welsh,. Being Welsh myself I find the comedy laugh out loud funny - I grew up with the characters, in fact I think I may be one of them. Ruth Jones is a proved comedy writing talent and for my part she has surpassed Gavin and Stacey with Stella. To use a clumsy pun, Stella is stellar.

I have watched every single episode of the comedy Stella and i saved the series to watch again and again i have watched Ruth Jones in Gavin and Stacey but i think this has been a fantastic series. Ruth Jones is a fabulous writer things that all families can relate to that is why this series is so popular and i hope she writes another series as this has been fun from start to finish this is how life really is for some people and its a pity there is not more programs like this on TV

So Ruth please please lets have some more i am upset to think that my Friday nights of waiting to watch are over its such a shame please write some more and let us no when a new series will be coming out?????????????

Definitely worth watching! Following the success of Gavin & Stacey, Ruth Jones has brought another great series to the screens. Set in the Welsh valleys with Ruth Jones playing the lead of Stella, a divorced woman in her forties with 3 children. It is a well written, funny and heart warming story that unfolds through the episodes. The character selection and relationships between the characters is excellent. As a Welsh person myself I have really enjoyed the humor and the catchphrases have certainly caught on as a joke between friends. The only thing that could of improved the airing of the series was if it was broadcast on BBC TV as Gavin & Stacey was, therefore, making it more widely available.

I stumbled upon this show on Hulu and just finished binge watching it. It's by far my favorite television series and I'm waiting with bated breath for series 4 - hopefully there will be one. The casting is impeccable. The quirky characters are a nice mix with the more relatable ones. The Welsh countryside is breathtaking. I wish I had a bench to sit on with the view they have from their bench. The characters have everyday problems that we all share. I shed tears and I laughed and found so much of it that I could relate to. I think if Americans give it a chance they will enjoy it as much as I did. Hats off to Ruth Jones....you're brilliant!

I was very late to the party with Gavin & Stacey, only watching it last year and absolutely loving it, so much so, that I've watched every episode at least half a dozen times over including the specials.

Because of G&S I knew of Ruth Jones, despite finding her character disgustingly funny in equal measures, but what a great actor she is !

Been looking for something new to watch and came across STELLA, I'm half Welsh, my paternal Grandparents are from Pontypridd so the right area and one of my favourite friends here in Leicester is from Mountain Ash , also in the Rhondda.

I've been binge watching this brilliant series and still got series 4 to watch. Relatable, funny, sad, weird, outrageous and just utterly brilliantly written and acted.

Ruth, if you are reading this, hats off to you girl, thank you so much for this and Gavin and Stacey ! Can't recommend it enough.

Right, I'm going now, in a minute !! Cheeers.
