Am I Being Unreasonable?

Cooper & Hizli's darkly twisted comedy about a toxic friendship, a toxic marriage and toxic secrets is an inconsistent beast and does not always hit the right mark - but a fantastic cast (particularly national-treasure-in-waiting Lenny Rush and the brilliantly unpleasant Dustin Demri-Burns) anchored by the two writer's own magnetic presence and some smart unfolding mysteries keeps it very watchable throughout. Where the series can go from here is an intriguing prospect because it's hard to argue with accusations that it didn't quite tie everything (or, indeed, anything) up by the last episode.

Nic is in a loveless marriage, surviving on alcohol and the love of her son, her fortune's change when she meets Jen, on a drunken night, Nic reveals her big secret.

I thought this series was pretty awesome, if you're a lover of black comedy, this should be right up your street, it's clever, funny and definitely a little twisted.

The writing from Daisy May Cooper and Selin Hizli is the show's best feature, it stands apart from pretty much every recent comedy release, with perhaps the exception of Inside no 9, it's humour in that area.

Lots of laughs, lots of drama, it's one of those shows that crosses many genres, it's a comedy, it's a thriller, it's a whole lot more.

Nothing is quite what it seems, so expect the unexpected, more twists and turns than a ride at Alton Towers.

The acting is excellent, Daisy May Cooper and Selin Hizli are excellent, they share some great scenes together.

I came away from series one with lots of questions that still need answering, I cannot wait for series 2.

Superb, 9/10.

Anyone who doesn't get this is just not meant to get it. It is beautifully, weirdly random and is a DARK comedy. It has an ACTUAL plot and back story despite what some may say - there is an unintelligent critics' review - IGNORE THIS - Daisy May is AMAZING as is Lenny Rush, who plays her son. Even the 'cameo' characters are hilarious. The writing is BRILLIANT and is timed well for Hallowe'en. Watch this if you are INTELLIGENT and love random, well written comedy, acted naturally. The set is strangely mellow and somewhat 'League of Gentlemen', with a sinister edge. I was hooked immediately and think anyone who likes clever, unusual writing will too!

Brilliantly written and observed, the chaos surrounding the lives of Nic (Daisy May Cooper) and Jen (Selin Hizli) are perfectly set against the backdrop of English village life. Great piece of writing by them both, and so well played. It may confuse some as it doesn't fit in the normal simple genre boxes, this is as life is, funny, dark, weird, confusing, heartwarming and it's simply something to enjoy without constraints. Ollie (Lenny Rush) absolutely steals every scene he is in and was perfectly cast. If you liked 'Dead to Me' then you will love this (and if you like this and have not seen 'Dead to Me' give that a watch).

Clearly put together by people who know exactly what they are doing.

First season would have been enough. It was perfectly paced with real twists, your understanding of what is going in in every scene gets enhanced. Still lots of questions going into series 2, but it could have stood alone

After a slightly weaker start to series 2, the last three episodes are all brilliant so I'm glad they continued.

It's rare you get an actor knocking it out of the park. Here we have 3. Both female leads and of course the son. All three are magnetic, but if I am honest, I think the kid steals it. He manages to convey that "older than their years" thing some kids have, but also seems utterly vulnerable making you want to hug him. No spoilers, but his little scene at the end of series 2 is jaw-droppingly good.
