Not often I binge watch a comedy, but this has made me laugh out loud so many times. It's, a, surprise hit for me, who knew such dysfunction could be so hilarious. I guess it is funny because we can all see things in it we recognise in ourselves or others. Josie brilliant character. Kat's performance and comic delivery is right on point, her pathetic awkward smiles and twisted body demeanor pure funny. Her mum desperate and super funny, her crazed deluded sister. Dev is just so awkward and cringetastic as is the boyfriend. Hope it continues, a great female led comedy of ultimate awkwardness with some great lines.

Favourite scenes include the pregnancy test, the trying to get sectioned by taking two paracetamol and the concerns about giving illicit drugs to a young girl of similar age. And the layers Josie wears on the boat trip cracked me up.

Sharply written spoof/satire. Been waiting for a show with edge for a while, this one is done well.

A great cast, comedy chops a plenty you are spoiling us.. and it's funny and silly at the same time. Inspired cast, Richard E Grant clearly having a ball (playing a complete **** - love his blurbs to camera during the credits) makes me want to also watch Withnall again. Daniel Bruhl, Himesh Patel, Juliette Stephenson to name a few, and Billy Magnussen especially is brilliant. Having a laugh at the tropes and clichés of certain movie universes, reminded me of Soapdish what's not to like, it's all done so well.

Ignore the bad reviews. I'm bingeing this as its so good. I hope it gets another season.
