Everyone Else Burns

It was quite clear it was the cult I grew up in in the first 5 seconds of the show, it was so unbelievably funny and accurate the person who wrote it must have grown up in the cult because there was so many tiny things you would only know if you was one, they even got characters down to a T - i could deffo relate also I liked the diversions for copywrite purposes lol it was refreshing to see this and it helps to laugh about this past traumatic life lol I hope they keep it rolling!

The problem is I'm not sure how funny it would be to people who never was in the cult, I don't think it's a relatable or understandable life to others, cult members would definitely not find it funny and most likely would avoid. However for us ex's it's fab gives you a chance to confirm yep you were living that life and thank god your not now- but your not alone so laugh instead of crying (as our ex members have really bad mental health after leaving the jehovahs witnessess or being disfellowshiped ) it shows you the humours side! And also it gives you a chance to show those around you a glimpse of what you had a live through.

Being raised a Jehovah's Witness and leaving 2 years ago I found this sitcom hilarious and surprisingly accurate. The writers must of also been raised in the religion because there were so many small querks that you'd only know if you lived through it first hand. I'm not sure how well people from a different background will understand the niche jokes but I couldn't stop laughing. I thought they did a really good job of balancing the hilarious side of some of the rules and also the seriousness of it and how it affects people's family. I like how they changed just enough details so as not to get sued by them! I hope they return for series 2!!

Exploring an extreme of cultist religion, Everyone Else Burns feels fresh and funny, and as the series progresses it really blossoms into some heartfelt developments.

Not entirely unpredictable, but paced well and the tension caused by the differing character traits within the family gives off some great (awful) chemistry. It is a little slow to begin with, but once each family member's wants and needs become apparent, its easy to become invested in the storyline.

To an extreme where every belief, action and scenario grows into something silly, the straight performances do provide the laughs, which eases through plot arcs which can be intentionally frustrating. It takes a little time to get into (which isn't ideal for a 6-episode series) but once it all clicks, Everyone Else Burns is truly enjoyable.

I couldn't stop watching. I really enjoyed this show. It doesn't paint the believers of this fictional faith as moronic/evil , instead it paints a realistic picture of how some faiths and preachers can harm the people they're trying to enlighten.

The show has a great heart and it made me cackle with laughter. The characters are very likable and well written. The cast gave a great performance , they all have such a great range.

A lot of the reviews are vocal people with religious backgrounds who may not like the challenging nature of the subject matter. I definitely would say it's worth giving a watch. Looking forward to season 2.

Good scripts and a fine premise. A parody of Jehovah's Witnesses and various hard line Christian sects. A talented cast that is let down by Simon Bird who is only capable of rehashing the same character seen in In-betweens. He's got no other range and it takes the whole story line into comedy cliché, where as all the other cast are quite rightly playing the characters much straighter and therefore stronger.

Shame. He was poorly cast. I may stick with it but it's borderline because he continually ruins the plots with his pantomime over acting. Hopefully future casting directors will take note and we won't see him for a while.
