I love Toni in almost everything but what the heck was this? It was literally a show on what not to do The daughter was the most unintelligent, bumbling idiot that I couldn't keep watching this because of her chsarqcter. Was this writing intended to make fun of a millennial and portray them as morons? If so, then it succeeded!
My god it is like pulling teeth or getting blood from a stone. There are 1.5 likeable characters out of 20 or so. Pointless dialogue ruins poignant moments. Depressing, stiff, irrelevant tripe and yet I watched it to the end. I've only got myself to blame.
One of the earlier reviewers nailed it - it would have been a great 90 minute movie . The continual hoping back and forth between the past to present to past to present was annoying , distracting and uncalled for - the first episode could have set the stage for the remainder of the series far more enjoyable - also reducing the # of episodes to 6 would have helped the continuity and movement - One other reviewer said even Toni Collett couldn't save this series - actually she did - without her it was a 3 or less.
It was really disappointing to see in how many ways the young version does not resemble to the main character. The voice of the girl from the flashbacks is absolutely nothing like Toni Collette's, not to mention their face (the young girl has a super round face structure which just cannot change that much while growing up). This was a big missed opportunity which was irritating the whole way along the series. Sometimes I even forgot who the young girl is. Seemed like a totally different character and was hard to connect to the story in the present.
All in all, I liked the storyline but the only good actor for me was the mother. The first episode convinced me to start watching but it became harder and harder to continue.

Thank goodness, I had insomnia. The plot is frustrating, andvthe storyline does get lazy and lethargic. Every character is flawed so after a few episodes you stop rooting for anyone and just watch. If you got the time and a few hours to kill.......it is okay! Not memorable but it is very watchable.
