I giggled through this whole series. Binge watched all 6 episodes in one night. Typical understated Aussie humour.

If you're looking for canned laughter and "obvious" humour, this is NOT the show for you.

I can't wait for Season 2.

But then... Season 3, Episode 3 and that deads**t Sam Campbell makes an UNwelcome appearance. It almost cost them a star 🌟

Wife and I stumbled across this series and thought, why not? Glad we did. Took a period of adjustment though. We live in the US. In Connecticut. Our connection with Australia, it's people and their humor is non-existent. So, the pacing, outlook and phrasing of the show seemed...well...foreign. Fortunately, Kitty Flannigan is ingratiatingly quirky enough to pull us through and then in to the series. She's the show. Her reactions to the everyday crap she encounters are human and full of humor. This is not highbrow stuff. But it is thoughtful and seen through the eyes of a flawed, coping fellow human. So, it's relatable. And funny. Sometimes hilarious. And, yes, still a tad confusing. But worth the watch.

With 'Colin From Accounts' hopefully getting a second series, the Aussie comedies coming to the UK at the moment are from a rich vein of humour. I love the sarcasm in this especially from the title character, boss Ray has a brilliant nonchalance bordering on incompetence, Roz is just the right side of the likeable/unlikeable line and George is played wonderfully, mixing an unlikeable, modern woke-ness with a fine level of dimwittedness. The running jokes are funny and each weekly story is hilarious. More please from the land Down Under. I sincerely hope we're very a third series. Kitty Flanagan is a brilliant comedy actress and writer. I'd love to see more from her.

This is one of the funniest 6 episodes I have ever watched. Helen says things we want to say and she lives with the consequences. She meets people we have met (or who we are) and she pivots to smooth their road even if it makes her life rockier.

Like us, she has a dog that grounds her and family that makes her as crazy as the people around her.

As usual - it's the Aussies who give us absolutely the best and funniest series. When will we learn to just tune in to them and let them take over our electronic world.

If you need some smart (intelligent), funny, honest humor in your insane (American) life, this is the series for you.

Enjoy!

Great script / screenplay delivered so well by a wonderful cast !

Love the location on a Melville tram line street in Melbourne inner suburbs.

The series is unpretentious with simple stories of eclectic ordinary people bringing their petty legal problems to this very small legal practice.

Always funny sides to their stories!

In the office, "Helen" the lawyer is actually the only one working, all the other characters are too busy making life difficult for Helen!

Each episode is about 25 minutes and before you know it, you have been enjoying an entertaining time !

Congratulations on ABC for this wonderful Aussie comedy!

Can't wait to watch the next episode !
