Meet the Richardsons

This show is amazing! Both of them have a very real sense of humor. Came here as a Jon fan, left as a Lucy fan

I really like this show, but I'm not sure if I should be embarrassed to admit it.

This is a semi-scripted reality show, perhaps similar to The Only Way is Essex, where cameras follow married comedians Lucy and Jon around various fictional and non-fictional scenarios.

The show is at its best when it appears to be unscripted, when Jon and Lucy are simply sitting on the sofa making each other laugh. Various celebrities make an appearance.

I think the real shameful joy of the show comes from its ambiguity. To what extent is it reality? Which parts are scripted? How different are the true Lucy and Jon from their comedy personas? To what extent are they just joking and to what extent do they genuinely hate/love each other?

Unlike the previous reviewer, I think that TV panel shows are greatly enhanced by his presence. The series of Taskmaster he was in is by far the best series to date and 8 out of 10 cats does Countdown is only worth watching with him on it. Have only just realised that this programme is a mockumentary as dialogue and situations so believable. Lucy Beaumont is a very lucky woman.

It's so deadpan, these two really do deserve each other. Two comedy actors, letting TV crews into their personal world.

Is it scripted or ad-libbed based on their real lives? They are comedy actors after all - so we don't know what goes on when the film crew leaves and the doors are closed.

More of a sitcom than reality TV, two people, a couple struggling through life. John - famously lampooned for being single forever on various panel shows, lands a catch in Lucy, but does he know what he has let himself in for?

I'm sceptical it was a marriage of convenience, a symbiotic relationship where they could help promote each other.

What's epic about this series is, it's just about having fun and having a laugh. Enjoying comedy for comedy's sake. Lucy's not trying to do anything other then share some light hearted, real and honest humour. Just want we need at this time in the world.

Those who are looking for light relief from the horrible depressing state Covid-19 is causing, look no further! Your relief is right here!

Hope there will be a series 2 Lucy & Tim xx
