Avoidance

... transition from season one to season two required a leap of faith... and season two ends as if the production can-be-over... with little to offer that is not routine, unfunny situations episode upon episode, why it should go on at all is debatable

... cast is adequate for what they've been given to perform... there's lots really annoying at times, and you'll find yourself either sitting waiting for something halfway-meaningful to happen, or fast-forwarding through increasing segments of nondescript-proceedings.. should there be a season three, what more can be accomplished-said.. this really should be over.

I love pretty much everything Romesh is in because I love his awkwardness and deadpan style. Could of really good characters in it, not edgy or hard hitting but I did enjoy it.

I am a big fan of Romesh when he is playing himself. He has acting potential and his dry delivery of one liners never misses but ultimitely the show feels like something is lacking and it just isn't particularly funny. It's a very boring plot and the dialogue does not make up for it. I find alot of the scenes/ dialogue to be empty, drawn out and often awkward. There are no laugh out loud momements but there are some mildy humorous aspects. I want Romesh to explore all creative outputs but for me he really shines when he isn't as strictly scripted and responding to other actors. Unfortuntely some of the acting is not the best and it doesn't help the with akwardness of the line deliveries and lack of substance of the plot etc.

A story of a hopeless 40 something man going through a breakup and dragging his extended family in to the drama. Lots of heartfelt moments and funny parts (I would describe it as amusing rather than laugh out loud). Romesh plays his role well, a shout out to the kid who plays Spencer, his son, he is brilliant and the scenes with just the two of them in are my favourit.

Jonathan and Claire's relationship comes to an end, in between is their little boy Spencer, a six part series that shows how everyone tries to adapt to life's new circumstances.

I've read each of the reviews, and I think I can see the ones that watched the first one, or maybe just the first trip, I'd be the first to admit, I almost switched it off. I really didn't get into this at all....

..however, in episode four, something changes, it's almost as if the show finds its place, it doesn't provide rip roaring comedy, but it does become so enjoyable, if you stick with it, you're rewarded with a top notch series finale.

The characters take their time to warm up, I did take to Courtney straight away, and it was interesting to see her relationship with Spencer develop.

It isn't raucously funny, but it's Romesh, so it's humorous, and wonderfully dry, it does get funnier as it progresses.

No word on Series two yet, I hope there's more, as there is definitely potential here.

7/10.
