One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I never seen like that tv show to racist to Turkish. I can't believe that nobody made it complain till now. On the episode 4 start from 3.05 minutes elder guy said that Rynair they sat on me next to Turkish and the conversation continue more stupidly. I felt that really offensive what is wrong with Turkish Man and Rynair or any other company should pay attention when they sat them to next to other nationality especially Irish? This is discrimination and its illegal in the UK.

This is a heck of a TV series you may have watched. We watched it on Amazon Prime and finished all 18 episodes over the weekend. It's a comedy created out of a series of tragedies that keep happening with this middle aged couple in London - so there is a lot of British accent and tea!! There is a lot of swearing (f-word) and explicit sexual conversations which is why I guess it's not suitable for children to watch. American marketer Rob is on a business trip to London where he hooks up with an Irish teacher Sharon for a week. Everything is forgotten as Rob returns to the US when, after two months, Sharon drops a bomb over the phone that she's pregnant. Rob returns to London for good. From there on their lives converge and so does their troubles. From complicated pregnancy to work troubles to crazy parents to relationship issues of their friends, Chris and Fran, troubles just seem to be coming their way all the time - sometimes all together. The story is very well paced and with so many characters around, it stays interesting throughout. There is also a cultural aspect with an American man setting himself in a British environment and an Irish family. The differences are very subtle but some of them do create moments of humor and awkwardness. The lead cast, Rob Delaney (playing Rob Norris) and Sharon Horgan (playing Sharon Morris), is also the writing team of the series and the work is great. That possibly explains how they are at ease with their scenes in the series. The expressions (especially the "what the hell is going on????" ones), the dialog delivery, the punches are pretty much spot on. With Rob and Sharon, being originally from the US and the UK respectively also adds the required originality to the story. Another character to watch out for is Fran (played by Ashley Jensen) which is probably the most screwed up after Rob and Sharon in the series. Ashley is great to watch. Her awkward chemistry with Mark Bonnar made it even more interesting with two wildly different personas paired together. The direction has been quite good. No time wasting on unnecessary melodrama. The scenes have been shot in a quite straightforward manner. However, I'm not sure what thought-process went into creating recap section at the beginning of each episode. The recap has been very jumbled up with events shown not in the same order that they happened earlier and from random previous episodes. The series is split into three seasons (one each year) of 6 episodes each. Can't wait for the next season in 2018. Definitely to be watched!!!

This show makes me so happy. Seeing others deal with the same issues we actually have to live out in real life with such honesty at the same time making us laugh..that's a pretty good way to truly think about not sweating the small stuff. The two main characters have incredible chemistry together. Their timing is impeccable. You have to pay attention or you could miss a joke because it is quick..fast moving humor that has you laughing the entire 24 minutes it plays out. I suggest this to anyone who wants to end their day ( or start it) with a good laugh.

This show is just fun!! Right from the very start, it just grabs you as does not let go. These two (Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney) are truly talented.. on both sides of the camera. Why can't we learn here in the US how to produce these kinds of quality programs. And it's only the early going for this series, but it's hoped that it might have a very long run, for it is everything you can want in this genre of programming. Yes, it's a TV series comedy, but really it is so much more, and it has a not-real/ real-life quality about it that is most appealing and entertaining. All categories are well done.. casting, writing, acting, and production values. There are few, if any, weaknesses. It appears it will wind up being a sixteen episode split-season. It's wished there would be more, but you'd find few to complain, just as long as they can kept it going with such outstanding quality work.
