Derry Girls is a quick-witted, irreverent show with amazingly funny scenes. It's very well-written, with the Irish slang making scenes even funnier. It portrays very well the climate of religious Northern Ireland with realistic characters. There is also positive representation and the group has a satisfying development arc. The wacky situations provide humorous moments but can sometimes be too far-fetched. Would definitely recommend - even if you're not Irish.
Wow. Bojack Horseman is an amazing show with fascinating episodes that are creative and unique for TV today. It deals with deep and complex characters and faces so many issues with a refreshing style. Some episodes are incredibly emotional and extremely immersive. However, I felt the earlier seasons were not as good as the later seasons - my personal favourite being season 4 as the main storyline dealt with a complicated, depressing issue in a breathtaking way. Bojack Horseman is not the funniest show, there are plenty of chuckles though. Overall this show was amazing with great writing and was something so different to everything else I have seen.
Arrested Development is one of the most fascinating shows. The writing in the earlier seasons is so clever and always exciting. The way each episode merges together at the end is absolutely hilarious. The characters are very funny, and the jokes are almost always intellectual. Despite negativity online, I think season 4 was actually really good - not as good as seasons 1-3 but still was well written and funny. However season 5 was the worst by far, not bad compared to other shows - just a shell of its former self.
