This brief series should be binge-watched with zero expectations and zero distractions. Zoe Lister-Jones should be in the running for an Emmy for the scene in Episode 7 where she screams at herself and Gina shows up. I don't agree with other reviewers who say it could have been a 90-minute movie. Each episode was clearly separate from the previous and necessary. The different characters throughout are delicately braided throughout. Primary original characters, Gina for example, showing up throughout, make this fantasy story feel plausible. By the way, Mae's orgasms were definitely catchy. Hard to believe there were there was a film crew milling about!

It's not perfect but it holds your attention. The focus is very centered on Mae which fits the plot, but the Gina and Elijah actors contribute some necessary counterpoint. Does not completely hang together on close inspection but it is still interesting to watch. The story is a kind of variant on a Groundhog Day sort of theme, but more serious and even a little full of itself. There is a little too much self-centered introspection. There are many varied situations, most of which are compelling. There is a good range of secondary characters which contributes to the interest. Overall, a good effort on a non-traditional story.

I loved this, and Zoe Lister-Jones is great in anything she's in. The storyline was really interesting and I loved the moving through the different dimensions. I'm not really getting the negative reviews on this. It's something different, is easy viewing at half an hour, and only goes for seven episodes. I'd probably class it as humorous drama, rather than a comedy, though. So don't go into it thinking there'll be heaps of laughs.

The supporting cast were great too, except I think the husband was miscast - he seemed like an overgrown teenager, and the two of them married wasn't really believable for me.

Zoe's Lister-Jones performance, writing, and direction created a beautiful piece of art. I enjoyed the series from the start because of her presence, especially. It's refreshing to see sex scenes filmed through a woman's lens, and as an integral part of the story. By the final episode, I had a different take on the whole series than I did at the beginning. It was life-affirming, while exploring how easy it is to lose sight of ourselves and all the gifts in our lives. I love quirky, philosophical films, and this hit the spot. If you're a fan of main stream films, this might not be up your alley..

To me this is one of those series to be watched on a certain mood, definitely not after coming from your lousy work that you don't like (if you're in that situation), or after coming from running when the brain is too alert. I watched all episodes late at night and enjoyed it very much, maybe because of the late night tranquility.

I didn't know the main actress and she impressed me a lot, on how natural and real her performance is, specially on the laughs. I think she is fantastic and will search more of her work.

The best things of this show is in the details. If you watch it for the general story that it is and expect a certain outcome, you might find that there is no sense of direction or that it didn't work... but if you just let it go with the flow, you will certainly find some gems regarding the psychology and behavior of the characters. I also loved the soundtrack, it makes the surreal moments funny and the happy moments really sweet.
