I'm five episodes in and I'm actually enjoying it quite a lot!
Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini are just great. The show is original, funny, witty but suspenseful and even deep at times.
I've seen other people compare it to Grace and Frankie ( but darker), and I see the resemblance as both are comedies based on the friendship of two women who could not be more different from each other, but for some reason its atmosphere keeps me thinking that this is probably somewhere near where Santa Clarita Diet was going ( but sadly failed).
My only concern about this show is that the plot may not be able to stretch for more than a season, maybe two, but let's see what happens. Other than that, if you like dark comedy, give this a go!

The new show starring Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini just had its full first season drop on Netflix and both leads totally knock it out of the park.
It's premise (Two widows meet at a support group meeting, and become close friends) is not something that sounded interesting to me, but I love Christina Applegate, always have since I had a crush on her in Married With Children, and since then, I have always enjoyed her work in movies and TV. So I gave it a chance. Well, I binge watched the entire season in one go.
Linda Cardellini is an actress I only know from the Scooby Doo movies and other supporting roles in comedies (Daddy's Home) and the MCU, I didn't really have an opinion of her, I didn't like or dislike her, but she is amazing here
Darkly comic at times and heartbreaking at others, it is utterly compelling and each episode just makes you want to watch the next. I highly recommend it, one of the best TV shows I have seen in a long time.

I was sucked in within ten minutes. Brilliant acting and plot twists. I am always a fan of Christina Applegate, but Linda Cardellini SHINES!
THOUGHTFUL, KIND AND HONEST.
Enjoy the binge! Thanks NETFLIX!

Just finished season 3. First time in a very long time that the seasons got progressively better. I did not want it to end. I was unbelievably touched. I needed this show right now. I'm not posting spoilers but it turned in a direction in season 3 that got me in the feels as I laughed. Hard to create a show that does both. This one masterfully does. The writing is perfect, directing outstanding, lighting so good! Setting (nice artwork) and site location outstanding. Casting in this show was perfect. I can't imagine any other cast. I gave this a 10 because of the difficulty in illiciting all the emotions that this does, the writing directing and acting was as good as it gets. If this show doesn't deserve a 10 Which show would? (Other than Queens Gambit of course). This show was as good as it gets in every way. I don't think I'll ever be able to see a paper crane without getting emotional.
This new show popped up on Netflix so we decided to watch an episode, 5 hours later the whole season came to an end.
Really enjoyable dark comedy, drama, crime all wrapped up in to one. Great performances from both the ladies.
If you are looking for the "who done it?" type of show you found it, however there is a slight twist. How does one reveal what they know. Enjoy it, looking forward to season 2.
