Mujer Soltera Borracha

What I really admire about this series is it's ability to walk the fine line where you try to be funny, but you also try not to make fun of alcoholics and the disease of alcoholism. I think Single Drunk Female accomplishes this, which I think is very, very difficult to achieve. Some people are saying this isn't a comedy, but I think it definitely is. Then again, if you're expecting a comedy like "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" or "Girls5eva"...well, it's not that kind of comedy.

Sofia Black-De'Elia, a doppelganger for a young Rachel Weisz, does a great job in the lead role of Samantha. The pleasant treat/surprise is Ally Sheedy returning with her first significant gig in a long time in the role of Samantha's Mom. I thought she would just be mailing in the performance because, hey, she's Ally Sheedy, and she's more famous than all the other people on this show put together, so what does she care? It turns out, she cares a lot, and does a great job.

My only mild criticism of this show is the casting, which tries too hard to be very "woke", which I didn't think was necessary. Then again, I'm 60 years old, and I'm sure I'm not the target audience for this series.

I had no idea what to expect, but the acting is exceptional. The concept is original and the script is well written. It definitely kept me interested and wanting more.

Watching the first few minutes I sensed something that was going to be rather dark and depressing wrapped up in a thin comedy shell.

But it soon shows it's appeal and maturity, balancing something that does have serious undertones but is delivered in a manner that whilst not funny, is amusing enough to smile at, without being dragged down in the mire of alcoholism.

I'm only two episodes in. So far I like the show, it's promising. Let's see how it develops. The topic - sobriety - is important and interesting. It's definitely more a drama than a comedy. The setting and the mood is realistic and respectful, neither overly dramatic nor ridiculous nor sappy. The actors so far are very good.

If you're at all interested in the topic give it a go!

Started watching this because the title was really alluring and I thought it'd be a really fun approach for a show. It's not that funny so I wouldn't label it as a comedy sitcom but I don't know what other genre you'd put it in, I still think it's pretty decent though. It's interesting enough for you to watch, but not enough to get excited for the next episode. It's not gonna be the next big thing on tv, it could be funnier but I still like it. I just realized I use "but" quite a lot in my reviews but who cares.
