Good Grief

The best production to come from NZ in a long time !

Being Aussie, I don't usually enjoy NZ TV.

However, this has a good neutral tone that works for any English-speaking country, it could have been in country England or South Coast Australia. They got the balance SO right in this series !!! Not at all over the top, nor completely insular for just NZ spectators.

I could not get enough of this series and was sad that there were only 6 episodes in Season 1.

The cast and their acting do their characters so well. I do hope all of them return.

The narrative plot was fabulous, in a relatable dark comedy way.

The setting of the Mise-en-scène is perfect.

This is one series that I really hope attains more future funding, I cannot wait for season 2.

The cast, writers, and the team should be exceedingly proud because it is good material.

Funny, Dark, Witty, Brilliant.

They honestly balanced everything so well !!! WELL DONE 😊

I loved it. I love the dark humor and the music. I thought the 2 sisters are very good actresses and have great chemistry. I love how they are sisters in real life.

The never-ending similarities between this show and Six Feet Under cannot be pure coincidence. The plot points match up nearly exactly.

I found this show by chance on AMC and absolutely love it. The dry, subtle humor of this show is fantastic. I love the scenes with the twin sisters making jokes at each other's expense because it actually feels real, as in jabs they would say to each other in real life. The show does a nice job of balancing the sadness of death while remaining compassionate and funny. Although the plot and characters are completely different from the British version of 'Ghosts' there's something about 'Good Grief' that reminds me of it. The supporting characters add a nice bit of quirkiness to the show but the main characters, Ellie and Gwen, make this show one of my favorites.

Prematurely just to say this is nothing like 6 feet under since I came here to read the reviews. I only watched 3 episodes so far but yeah no. It has no separate story lines like with a brother, sister, mother, Rico and was less comedic in tone. Any ways it's an ok watch so far but not brilliant like 6 feet under.
