Can't Cope, Won't Cope

If you'd like to watch a girl drink and be hungover for a few hours, this is the show for you. Little storytelling takes place, and what is there doesn't work to further any sort of plot. If this had been longer I would have stopped watching, but it's only 12 20-minute episodes.

I came across this show on Netflix a few years ago. I wasn't looking for anything in particular but after watching the trailer I decided to sit down and watch the series and I was pleasantly surprised. I did not grow up in the UK however their lives were very relatable to me and my friendships growing up. I absolutely love this show and was completely devastated to learn of Nika McGuigan passing. I will always come back to this for a rainy day watch when I'm feeling down. There's something very nostalgic about that show and if you can relate to their situation it's even more rewarding. I recommend everyone watch it at least once.

Watching this made me think of things that I did in my 20s that I hadn't thought of in years. This was a brilliant depiction of living in the big city as a young woman, and the nature of friendships.

This show is oddly comforting. It's definitely a not-so-dramatic caricature of living through our your 20's and 30's in today's era. Perhaps watching it during a particularly chaotic period in my life, made me feel even more connected, but I think most young people could see themselves in this.

This was essentially a mini-series. Similar to some millennial girlfriends shows, but definitely more real. It's great television, fun introduction into some Irish slang, and easy watching after a rough day. Seana Kerslake and the late Nika McGuigan were a delight.

If you enjoyed Dollface, Incredible Jessica James, Someone Great, etc. you might really enjoy this as well.

Just discovered this on BBC iplayer as I was desperate to find something to watch. I'm a long time out of Ireland so was prepared for some cringeful 'sure and begorrah' sentimental rubbish. Not so. Having watched the first two episodes I am looking forward to the rest. It starts off with two young women setting out in life.One works for an investment brokerage and the other is an art student. They are chronic boozers and don't take life too seriously. Drink leads them to make 'poor choices' and they are flying by the seat of their pants. The scenes in the club where they are drunk off their faces are so credible and they are all for having another drink.Also the inter office gossip and competition is farcical but has an edge to it. That's what makes it so watchable...we can see things will not always be so easy...
