Não Estou Morta!

I wasn't initially expecting much from this show. I decided to give it a watch out of boredom and was surprised it was actually pretty good.

Not a huge fan of the main characters, but the side characters have all been fantastic. Nell (Gina) can be a tad over the top annoying at times, but is tolerable for the most part. Lexi (Lauren) is almost a carbon copy of her character from Superstore. Sam (Hannah) is probably the only character that seems okay.

The episodes have been well written for the most part, even with some annoying parts sprinkled in. As a whole, I look forward to watching this show now.

This show had NO business making me shed tears on the first episode! It's simple, cute, and relatable. I didn't go into this show with much expectation, but I was surprised at how well written it was. I was wouldn't call it amazing yet but I definitely like it already! I liked Gina and Hannah from their original respective shows, "Jane the Virgin," and "New Girl" and I like them a lot here too. You can't help but initially kind of dislike Nell but the show gently reminds us that people are flawed and life is short. Watch it for a little laugh and maybe a few tears. I'm eager to see what the rest of the season will bring and where they take the storyline!

Season 1 focussed on the ghosts and the insights they passed on. It was creative and even emotional on occasion.

Unfortunately, someone seems to have decided on a different direction for season 2. It is now all about the office and the over-the-top characters that inhabit it. It is in most ways a clone of "Superstore" and other similar sitcoms with outlandish characters.

This would be fine if this was how they started out, but it is not what I'm looking for. I now consider it to be 2 essentially separate shows comprising season 1 "Not Dead Yet" and season 2+ of "Generic Office Environment Sitcom."

If you're looking for the ghostly connection, stop watching after season 1.

My score is the average of 7 for season 1 and 5 for season 2.

Initially saw some clips of this show on TikTok and I am so glad I watched the full show. I really like it, it's short and sweet episodes and not too serious. Lauren Ash from Superstore is amazing as Lexi and it's nice to see some other familiar faces (Sam is Cece from New Girl). I found it funny, sweet and really touching at times especially with Monty and Cricket. It has its cliches at times but it's light hearted and has some good punchlines so it's all good. Definitely give it a watch!

P.s Gina Rodriguez doesn't deserve the hate, not sure why people are saying she can't act??? C'mon guys!

Give Gina Rodriguez her flowers! She was literally the titular character of Jane the Virgin and she carried the whole show on her back for more than 6 years! Don't play with her! She's amazing and she was definitely perfect here and her comedic timing was on point. The fact that she can act diverse characters on different tv shows, just shows how dynamic and talented she is. Plus I also cannot leave this review until the required character completes 600 words, so I'm just gonna remind people who says Gina Rodriguez is a terrible actress, to S*ck it lol! Anyways, this show is amazing. Not the best, but amazing either ways. At least you wouldn't have the urge to gouge your eyes out.
