Extremely touching and funny at the same time

The show gets you in the feels while laughing the entire way through. The cast is amazing and you grow attached to each character early on. The lessons on life are amazing and really sell the show as one of the best dramedies in the past decade. The show goes over a lot of dark themes with humour in a way that I've never seen in a show before.

Just finished season two and I thought it wouldn't be able to compare but I think season two was even better without having to just rely on the character dynamics. I think the plot lines were intricate and fleshed out. The story also doesn't just rely on Jimmy spiralling and getting better which is what a lot of shows end up doing when they get renewed.

Not silly like other Apple TV+ offerings.

I've watched the first two episodes and I find them compelling. Part of the reason is that I found there was something reality based off a therapist who needs therapy and wants to break through to his patients to unexpectedly break through his own issues.

I also respect the way it is presented - he is not doing something that other therapists should do, and that is quite clear.

It hasn't gotten into the silly situations of other shows like Loot, but it's still early in the series and I'll continue watching it.

The show isn't for everyone. That being said, I enjoy the depth of the characters that don't seem like caricatures; they are people who I am interested in getting to know.

Comedy gold

This is fun pure and simple. Crisply written, great one liners, enough pathos to prevent it becoming Big Bang Theory for the middle classes, a joy to watch. Yes real therapists wouldn't behave like this but anyone with a functioning brain cell would know that so criticism from that perspective is just negativity for the sake of dragging the rating down. Are some of the characters stereotypes? Yes, but no offence is given and none should be taken, FYI, I worked with a gay guy who was exactly the stereotype shown here. The real success here is blending the seriousness of therapy and grief with the growing pains of life at different ages, stages and ways of life and making it dammed funny. Finally, who knew what a fine light comedy actor Harrison Ford is? A complete revelation and worth watching the show just for him.

Already looking forward to next season

I actually really enjoyed Shrinking. It's about a grieving therapist (Jason Segal) who has enough and starts telling his patients exactly what he really thinks of them. What follows is a really funny series that will make you laugh out loud. The best part of the show are the interactions between Segal's character and Harrison Ford's character. This show has gotten nothing but great reviews for a reason. This show will no doubt be nominated for all kind of awards and deservingly so. It must be doing well because it's already gotten an early renewal for a second season. I can't wait to see more of this!

I want more Jessica Williams!

And the rest of the show is great, too. Jason Segel is perfectly cast for this script. He has the weird, idiotically confident energy needed for this role. And Jessica is perfect. Her humor is just right for the dialogue. This is the new way of situation dramedies. No real punch lines, just engaging personalities with a pinch of quirk, and family circumstances that are just a little over the line from normal, but still relatable. Of course, Jimmy's behavior as a therapist is completely absurd. You would lose your license immediately. Just impossible. But we allow metaphorical situations in drama. And in this script, we sense a strong purposefulness in the decisions. We have to give the writers the benefit and try to get the gist. For me, it's easy and fun. Other reviewers, apparently, struggled.

Quiz
Harrison Ford said, "This mixture of comedy and pathos and really emotional stuff, it gives you a sense of responsibility for the things you're communicating and how you're communicating. I think that that shows up on screen, and it shows up in the work these people do every day and how they do it. I had never done anything like this before and it was like suddenly recognizing what I've always wanted [acting] to be." He told Apple CEO Tim Cook "about the experience that I have with people who come up to me and say something about the show. And then I get to say something... and then they turn around and walk away. They do not want a picture. They do not want an autograph. They do not want to do anything. They just want to communicate that this means something to them. And it's an extraordinary experience in my life. That is a real thing. And it means the world to me."
