Falando a Real

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.

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!

This was a solid production and very unique storyline. The acting was terrific. I love how each character embraces their imperfections and shows vulnerability and employs humor to make spiritual growth.

Shrinking has a ton of heartfelt moments, awkward moments, mildly funny cute moments and laugh out loud moments. I hope they continue to make additional seasons of this because the character development warrants it.

Is it perfect? No. But neither are any of us. I think the overuse of profanity takes away from the overall power potential here. It's almost like the writers are forcefully making the show edgy. I personally don't think it needed it. That's why I gave it an 8. Definitely worth watching it.

This show slaps!! The characters have a lot of growth even in the first and second episode, the jokes are perfectly timed and executed, and all of the actors are doing a superb job! This is one of the best piolet episodes I've seen in quite a while! Harrison Ford does an amazing job in his supporting role and Jason Segal does a wonderful job playing a flawed, damaged character that is trying to be a better person and father. This is one of the best shows I have seen in a while! This show made me laugh like I haven't in a long time. As a psychology student this show is hilarious, and as a theatre student I can appreciate how great the script flows. I cannot understand the negative reviews as this is already one of my favorite shows after only two episodes. I hope the rest is as good!!

Shrinking is one of those rare shows that effortlessly balances laugh-out-loud comedy with deeply emotional storytelling, sometimes within the same scene. Across two seasons, it has proven itself to be not just a great show, but one that sticks with you-like a warm hug in TV form.

The cast is phenomenal across the board, but Jason Segel and Harrison Ford are on another level. Segel brings his signature charm and vulnerability to the role of Jimmy, a therapist struggling with grief, making his journey both hilarious and heartbreakingly real. Meanwhile, Ford-who could have easily phoned it in as the grumpy mentor-delivers one of his best performances in years. His portrayal of Dr. Paul Rhoades is layered, funny, and unexpectedly touching, proving that even legends can still surprise us.

The writing is where Shrinking truly shines. Few shows can take you from crying with laughter to just plain crying in a matter of minutes, but this one does it flawlessly. It captures the messy, beautiful reality of grief, friendship, and healing with a sharp wit and so much heart. Every episode feels like a perfectly crafted mix of humor and humanity.

And once again, Bill Lawrence proves why he's one of the most underrated forces in entertainment. The man does not miss. Scrubs, Ted Lasso, Cougar Town-he knows exactly how to create shows that feel like home, and Shrinking is no exception.

If you haven't watched Shrinking yet, you're missing out on one of the best, most heartfelt comedies in years. It's funny, moving, and just the kind of show the world needs right now.
