Almost Happy

Loved this show but I'm a bit biased since I was born in Argentina. I live in the US since 1986 but I love Argentinian humor bit depressing but what the heck ...that's us.

I enjoyed it very much. Sebastian is very creative. He shows all the weaknesses and strengths in his daily life as a live radio comedian. A third season is needed to continue with a good life history. We want Pablo Frabegas and Gabriel Schultz back, even Julieta Pink could appear. Thumbs up!!!!

I really tried to like this but it was such an amateurish production, with a childish script, just did not happen. Perhaps it will have more success in Argentina since the humor and political commentary is most applicable to that country. Not a sitcom that translates well enough to have a lot of global appeal.

Wainrach basically plays himself but changes his name in this really subtle comedy series from Argentina. I might be misremembering but the kids who play his kids might actually be his or they're in the series but it seems to be based on his real life even down to the football team he supports.

It's very funny in a very understated way, the type of comedy and character that a Jack Dee or a Ricky Gervais would play and if Netflix did an English language version of the show starring either of those comedy actors then it would work wonderfully well.

Wainrach pays tribute to his barrio, his Jewish faith and to the great city of Buenos Aires which he obviously loves. Such a good show and one I feel a lot of British audiences could relate to. If you have come across this and want to watch a really decent comedy with depth but you are bothered about subtitles then - just give it a go, you might be pleasantly surpirsed.

This sitcom gets funnier and funnier by the episode. It peaks with the arrival of the brother (Gaston, a heck of an actor!). Highly recommended.

I was looking for something funny after so many so-so shows, and finally found it. Here's rooting for a second season.
