Wellmania

On my wife's suggestion, I watched the show. Normally, in a show where the main character is so self destructive, e.g. "You Better Call Saul," I dislike the slow evolution into chaos, and, as another reviewer put it, "cringe moments." Saying that, there are some small redeeming qualities to the main character as she, very slowly, emerges from this vortex. Perhaps, the show is unpredictable in that we expect the process to be faster, but perhaps we also know from real life that such process will be all life consuming for someone as "damaged" as her. We also should know from real life that family and friends are also caught in this vortex. If you read this far, I would say, stick with it, it is not a comedy as "full of laughs;" it is a comedy of life happening in a moment for this person and we are just there to view the ride.

Why is everybody expecting this to be a hilarious comedy? Just because Celeste is in it?

It is a heartwarming movie about family, friendship, about unresolved traumas and various journeys. Please stop saying it is predictable after watching 1 or 2 episodes.

The world of Liv is everybody's world at some point and I looooved that she tries to get better and her journey is not predictable. She is not choosing the easy way, as you may see for yourself after the interview where she may or may not expose the fraud.

She may seem selfish, but it is clear that her unsolved issues with her family or men make her sound ungrateful sometimes.

I looooved this show and I love australian series, soo down to earth and revealing such an intelligent sense of humour.

If your looking for an off the wall funny and easy to watch show this is the one. Although the plot is sometimes predictable this can be forgiven as the comedy and slapstick shines through. A great supporting cast in her brother and her best friend help bring family issues to the surface. And I can certainly relate to a number of her issues and problems ! With a beautiful backdrop of Sydney, the NSW tourist board should be paying her commission! Loved it and Celeste shows her outstanding comedic acting ability. Always been a fan of Celeste and this should be the show that will rocket her to international Stardom. Couldn't stop watching.

I've never really followed Celeste on Instagram, I don't really get the humour of impersonating other influences and models, and essentially taking the Mickey. However, I absolutely love wellmania! Yes, Liv, is a hard character to like, but by the end, you'll understand why she is the way she is. I thoroughly enjoyed the backdrop of Sydney, and the cast of other characters with their own back stories. Season one certainly sets up for season two and I really hope this isn't another show, that gets cancelled well before it should. I'd say, ignore the bad reviews and give it a go. I binged four episodes in one night and the last for the next day. Easy watching!

I watched this hungover, and it was perfect for a hangover day on the couch. I have to admit I didn't laugh, the jokes were kinda cheap cringey ones, but I did enjoy the show. The acting was well done and I like the short episodes.

One thing I really liked is it wasn't too predictable. Every time I thought "oh this is about to happen" it actually wouldn't happen. I was pleasantly surprised!

I really like the premise for the show, and I love Celeste. She isn't afraid to make fun of herself.

As for the characters, not many of them are very likeable but that's ok, it's more realistic that way.

If there was a season 2 I'd watch it. I even shed a tear or two!
