This Way Up

Felt compelled to leave a review. Just binged watched season 2 and it's even better than season 1. It's very funny & brilliantly written. And the cast is just perfect. It touched and moved me on so many levels...A must watch.

It's not a comedy like most I've seen. Watching this made me feel like hanging out with that funny friend you have who doesn't necessarily make jokes, just a funny character and makes you laugh all the time, it's not forced or scripted, they're just able to find humour behind anything.

However, the shows more than just the humour, it shows a person who's struggling mentally and how it's affecting her life and those around her, veiling her struggles from her friends. Casting is spot on and they really bring the characters and story to life. It's cleverly written and manages to reflect mental issues in such a sad yet funny way. Aisling bea is really amazing at deflecting uncomfortable or awkward situations with her wittiness, even in real life. Her and Sharon's relationship in the show is amazing. I think the show deserves a little more recognition, just a little.

An incredible show that has so much honesty and heart and is Funny! Really reminds you to show up for others and keep laughing and loving even when you feel terrible. And it's just amazing well written and acted. The whole cast is phenomenal.

It's hard to tackle issues of mental health but I love how it was done in this series. It shows a woman trying to overcome it with both humor and with fear. I found the cast choices perfect and automatically could relate to each. This show is whitty and I found myself laughing at times but also feeling for the main character too knowing how hard it is to tackle a giant voice in your head telling you that you aren't enough. I binged this in an afternoon and hope for more episodes soon!

Is that there are only 6 episodes each season! Too brief a time with these wonderfully drawn and acted characters! Every actor embodies their character with vivid realness, kindness, and completeness. A perfect blend of humor, drama, and reality. How long will we have to wait for the next season?? Hopefully, all remain healthy and return for season 3.
