Amandaland

On first three episodes it is pretty solid stuff. Fans of Motherland may be a little disappointed as it's not quite as well rounded as that but stands on its own two feet.

Nothing brand new, and some of the gags are telegraphed a little too obviously but still many memorable one liners in each episode.

All the main cast fit their characters very well. Lucy Punch is good, very believable.

Reminded me a bit of I'm Alan Partridge S2 when he's living in the portacabin and struggling to get back on his feet. Cringe humour but not overdone.

Cannot believe there really is a KBK kitchen shop in Leytonstone...

A decent BBC sitcom.

Just watch it - if you're English/and or live in London and have witnessed the 'yummy mummy' tribe being passive aggressive at school collection time will know just how painfully accurate this show is Lucy Punch is awesome and the attention to detail in each storyline is wonderful, and perfectly encapsulates the general strain of living in London, raising children and trying to be a trend setter... Motherland felt like it slightly ran out of steam whereas this feels like as long as Amanda's ego keeps running wild then there's plenty of material left to explore. It's also a joy to see Anne going even more extreme - again another great performance...,

Missed Motherland sooooooo much, so I couldn't wait to watch this show!!! This was an amazing spin off show. It was Absolutely laugh out loud hilarious, every episode got better and better !! Amanda & Anne are AMAZING characters, the two actresses that play them are absolutely insanely talented, they really make you cry with laughter sooo much!!! Six episodes wasn't enough at all and I wish they were an hour long not 30 minutes!!!! We Need more Amandaland! There has to be a series 2, it is on the same level as Motherland for me... BBC we need a series 2 this was absolutely hilarious 10000/10 !!!

I was wondering if this would be as good as Motherland and it absolutely was. I binge watched all 6 episodes in a day and loved it. All characters were great and it was fab having Amanda being Amanda.

There's a lot more of Joanna Lumley which is good to see. Both Amanda and Felicity really grow on you in this spin off. I really hope there is another series to come and it would be nice to see some of the other Motherland characters turn up in the future. Ann is her usually funny self and Della, Fi and Mail are a great addition.

I can't believe it's had negative reviews I loved it and would definitely recommend.

Most of the poor reviews are from people who barely watched the first episode. Seems they were determined not to like it from the start. It's utterly brilliant. Amanda isn't likeable, that's the point, but she shows a few sparse moments of vulnerability, of needing to be loved, of shedding the aspirational veneer. People are missing the point! Lucy Punch is brilliant, as is Philippa Dunne. I split my sides as Anne recognises Amanda outside the school. Her reaction? Priceless and so funny. The new cast had a lot to live up to but they do so splendidly. Mal is a perfect foil to Amanda; I'm sure we will see more of the two of them if there is another series. Yes, I miss Kevin, who wouldn't, but these bite-sized, half hour episodes are perfect for a post-work pick me up. Whoever can't find this series hilarious or at least funny needs a personality reset. Don't believe their humbug and watch it all - right to the end! LOVED IT!
