If you want to have a great time, laugh like mad, and also enjoy spoofs of soap operas (which are spoofs almost in themselves), you have to watch Dropping the Soap.
This show overdoes everything that soap operas already overdo and takes them beyond the limits of your comedic imagination.
The acting is great (and over the top), the writing/scripts are great (and over the top), the sets are great (and over the top), and pretty much everything else is perfect also.
I don't want to give away too much, but in each 10 minute or so episode, there is drama, intrigue, comedy and soap opera silliness. The synopsis is that the show is a failing soap opera and Jane Lynch comes in to save the show. Her idea of saving is pretty much the opposite of everyone's on the show and that is where the drama and intrigue starts and builds. Add to absurd relationships and love affairs, people trying to save their jobs and get others fired, and the "secret" of at least one of the actors, and you are ready for some serious popcorn eating fun!
Definitely see this and enjoy. I've watched it a few different times and always see something new and find another laugh or two. I'm gonna go watch it again right now!

This was a breath of fresh air!
After being recommended this show by a friend I found myself binge- watching the entire series in one night and wanting more after each episode. I wasn't too sure what to expect from the poster but within the first few minutes I knew I was in good hands.
The characters are well rounded, the story is clear, the comedy is tasteful but still edgy. I found myself genuinely laughing more than I have in a while at a TV sow. Just wish there was more. 10 minute episodes are just too short.

In my view episodes are too long. In this case less would be more. There is nothing in typical 10 minutes per episode that could not be said in 5 minutes or even 4 minutes. Or maybe they should just show opening credits.
I had a fun night while watching it It is so nice to watch soft without brutal violence,sexuality comedy show like that. People should consider these kind of shows on evening time. It conrains special characters with extreme personalaties. Most of the shows nowadays includes gun violence offensive and discrimination of people in their scenarios. But honestly you could find this funny and also short episodes makes you enjoying concentrated quality time while 1-2 hours. I wish I could see it before. I will suggest that show to all my friends. Its also nice to meet Paul Witten in reality. Thanks.
Very funny. But you need to pay close attention to what they're saying. Entertaining way to kill a little time.
