The only reason I don't give it a 10 is because sometimes, the writing falls falls short of really being funny, and borders on silly, BUT -- I adore Fran Drescher, and she could read the phone book and I would be entertained, so I hope the show has a long run, so I can get my Fran-fix on a regular basis! As a woman with a "happily divorced" type of scenario myself (not a gay ex, but I think of my "ex" as an EX-tra husband since I am remarried), I appreciate the concept of the show -- and that even though divorced, there are still references to Peter being her husband.
All the cast are great -- perfect comedic timing! I'm happy that Fran and her ex created HAPPILY DIVORCED!

I am so mad I didn't get to see this show when it first aired. It's 2020 and I still feel it's fresh. Anyway, this is a hidden comedy gem. I am sure not many ppl know about this show. This really deserved better. Also why tf it got cancelled after just two seasons? I am mad. I wanted to see more adventures of Fran and Peter. Fran is such a comedy queen. I fell in love with her. The whole cast did great job on their comedic timings on this show. Just revive it already. 10/10 from me.
Surprised this lasted two seasons only watched one episode it was not funny they tried to be funny but it wasn't..Tv land has gotten so awful after the 2000s and this show proves it sorry Fran your not Lucille Ball it was too unbelievable of a premise anyway too much stupid heartwarming moments and audience laughing after someone talks the ex husband man is very cringe worthy were did they get him at he cannot act to save his life..sorry this ain't the nanny at least that was a funny show till the last season..glad this got cancelled the world took a collective sigh of relief after it got cancelled.
I like Fran Drescher. I like her comic timing. I like her schmaltzy sense of humor. I like her willingness to mock herself in order to get a laugh. I even like her oh so nasally voice. So I like Happily Divorced. The show succeeds or fails based on whether you like Fran Drescher. Lots of people do and lots of people don't. What the show is about is really almost superfluous because no matter what the premise, if you like Fran Drescher, you'll watch it. If you don't, you won't. I like Fran Drescher and I like her new show.
But for those who may not know Fran Drescher the show revolves around a woman and her recently out of the closet gay ex-husband living together, getting on each other's nerves and even sharing a few tender moments. The supporting cast is all good. I like the performances of Robert Walden and Rita Moreno as Fran's supportive but laid-back parents. (When Fran finds out that her parents always believed he was gay and thought that she knew all the time, she yells "Why would I marry a gay man?" Their response?...a shrug.)
So Fran Drescher fans, give it a try. The rest of you, tune in to something else.

I adore Fran Drescher. She kept me in stitches for years on "The Nanny", she's stone-cold beautiful, she can channel Lucille Ball at will, and she uses her star status to create a terrific platform for cancer survivors like herself. So what's not to love, huh? This show. Pains me to say it, but no amount of talent can save this cast from these scripts.
Fran's been mired in one turkey after another since "The Nanny". It's time for someone to find this woman a serious project, comedy or drama, that showcases what she can do. She's better than this and she deserves better than this.
