Avis à la une
Romesh Ranganathan is a great comedian, but his strength lies in his dry and acerbic quick wit. Strip that away and you're left with what you have here - a dull, wet character who weaponises his incompetence and bores the pants off the viewer.
The writing is slow and shallow, the supporting cast are given very little to work with, and RR's Jonathan is frustratingly unlikeable; he really doesn't have any endearing qualities at all. The man is a walking red flag.
The only way that the show could improve is for the main character to realise what a passive aggressive, selfish turnip he is, which would then mean the show ceased to exist...
Seriously disappointing.

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.
I am not a huge fan of comedies in general but I thought I would give this a go and I am really enjoying it. Romesh is down trodden, weak and pitiful member of society, who does everything and anything to protect his son from harsh realities of life. A definite watch.
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.
