Big Mood

I admire how this show sheds light on the challenges people face with mental health in a captivating and entertaining manner. It's evident that the writers have a deep understanding of the subject matter. They explore the all-too-common scenarios of doctors failing to listen and being hesitant to explore new treatment approaches due to accountability concerns. Moreover, the show bravely tackles the issue of individuals not receiving accurate diagnoses or refusing help due to apprehensions about medications and treatments, as well as the harmful misconception that happiness can be achieved with the flip of a switch. By addressing these crucial issues surrounding mental health and its treatment, the show serves as a powerful advocate for those struggling with mental health issues. Personally, it resonated deeply with me, and for that, I am truly grateful. Thank you for crafting such a meaningful portrayal.

I loved this series! It's very funny and real! Mental Illness has been a big presence in my life. This series is right on the money in getting it right. Thanks for such truth! I will watch it again!

So Maggie! We've all been there. She is hanging by a thread...but she is doing the best that she can.

This is a series about female friendship. You are both a fair weather and unfair weather friend! But sometimes your stuff gets too much and it all turns to dust!

The Mise en Scene of this series is spot on. The costumes, the set and all surrounds just add to the whole tone of the series! Watch it!

I thought it was entertaining enough to watch the season but some of the writing felt disjointed. Not in the fact that it went between comedic and darker tones, I enjoy that, but in other ways it felt like two different shows. Maybe that was intentional? Maggie had some good stories, shenanigans, funny one liners, and some more sympathetic moments, but Eddie's story was more cheesy and predictable, especially the parts with her mom, which were pretty soapy/teen movie-y. I also didn't really enjoy any of the secondary characters, who were either a bit too zany to be believable or just kinda there.

I really wanted to like the series. The characters are very interesting and the first episode had some lol moments but tbh it's not a comedy and that's what I wanted.

It definitely has potential to be a profound show but this trend of switching/bending comedies into hard core drama is being over done imo (and has been for years).

Sometimes people just want to have a laugh and skip the deeper issues.

If you're wanting a deep thinker; give it a go but if you're wanting a comedy then move on.

Lastly, let me reiterate again: IMDB PLEASE STOP FORCING US TO WRITE SUCH LONG REVIEWS! I literally just applied for a job that required fewer characters as a letter of introduction!

This series is witty and insightful. Nicola Coughlans performance as always was outstanding and drew you in to connect with the characters and what she is going through. Lydia West was the perfect companion to Nicola and to Maggie. I felt the preformed was so believable as a best friend just trying to be there and support. Really relatable to many different situations relating to a friend's mental heath. I loved how they portrayed bipolar disorder and the gravity it has on someone's life. They didn't backdown from the serious side as well as the light hearted elements sprinkled throughout. I just loved it all really hope for season 2 as the ending needs answers!
