Things You Should Have Done

You have to slightly suspend disbelief because the characters are quite exaggerated. By which, I don't mean theatrically over the top. This show is the opposite; it's understated, in the way all the best comedy is. Somehow, Lucia Keskin still writes them in a way that makes you overlook the flaws. She is incredibly talented. For someone so young to write an entire show, act, and sing, is amazing.

Selin Hizly somehow makes an unlikeable woman endearing, which not everyone could have done.

It's not a laugh out loud, canned laughter, type show and that makes it better. If you're looking for obvious, over the top, unoriginal comedy this may not be for you. If you love a more subtle type of comedy, then it's worth watching. I'm on my 3rd watch, now.

Even if the show isn't for you, it's worth checking out some of Lucia's other work. She's an intelligent, deadpan, comedian and an accomplished content creator.

I am honestly a massive fan of absurdist stuff and theatre, and I think anyone leaving a poor review just doesn't get the fact that its absurdity is purposeful.

Then again, absurdity isn't for everyone. But for anyone who enjoys subversive/new comedic stuff that's satisfying but not laugh out loud (which I honestly prefer sometimes), you should definitely check this out.

Great writing from Lucia, and very well acted. Particularly loved Lucas and Karen. Thought Karen very accurately portrayed an uptight but ultimately caring (unwilling) maternal figure, and the absolute shenanigans the characters got up to made every episode unexpected and entertaining.

Love this show! It's very funny but very dry, so if you don't appreciate dry humour you probably won't like it. It reminds me a lot of 'This Country'. I've watched Lucia for years and this did not disappoint! She's very talented and doesn't take her self too seriously which I love.

Currently binge watching the lot! On episode 4 and enjoying every minute :) my fave episode so far was episode 2. So funny.

I actually started watching it because Joanna Page said it was 'boring' and Lucia's reaction made me laugh. Hope they make a season 2 and prove the haters wrong!

Still need 30 characters to submit my review so this sentence is a filler.

Watch this series!! :)

Just finished all 6 episodes in one mourning (get it) and i really enjoyed. All the characters are really funny it reminds me of Stath Let's Flats/ This Country/ Mandy type humour but very original in itself at the same time. If you liked them you'll definitely enjoy this. Diane Morgan would fit perfectly into this show. Lucia's character is so vile looking and dresses like a sort of slop but have to say was pleasantly surprised when we see her glammed up for Nigella in episode 3. Selin Hizli is hilarious as Auntie Karen i'm pleased to see her back in such a funny role since her cameo in 'MUM' with Lisa Mcgrilis. Big fan of the character Dave too very funny delivery in his lines alongside step brother Lucas. Hope for a series 2 ASAP.

We need season 2 as soon as possible !!!

Absolutely love Chi - the innocence, naivity and the one liners!!! Love how we get snippets of what's going in her brain!

Storyline is a good - nothing something I've seen before.

However the older sister Karen - very annoying, boring, added nothing to the series. Not funny at all. Maybe that's what she was meant to be but it was grating to hear a constant complaints and the dialogue from her was very predictable.

Love the dancing at the end of each episode and the choice of songs in the series. And how's it's set in some random seaside town in England.

Give it a go - to the people here saying it's bad acting - you don't 'get It'
