Vox

Unlike so many comedies on the air right now, it captures an air of desperation — of people who barely have enough trying to find ways to scrape by.

Vulture

Faris is the most talented comic actress of her generation — Jim Carrey in the body of a sixties surfer girl — and the show has the good sense to give her at least three fun things to do in every scene.

Variety

Janney seems like a natural for this sort of comedic turn, and her character’s zen-like attitude, not over-thinking things and living in the moment, hits home.

IMDb

Everyday I am very grateful that I survived. I don't take my life for granted anymore. So when I heard about this show I had to watch. As soon as I was done with episode 1 I was the show's #1 fan.

Common Sense Media

It's trashy with fake laugh tracks... Despite this show being about sobriety, they normalise the drinking and drug taking.

Rotten Tomatoes

One of the biggest merits of the series is that it knows how to tonally integrate thorny issues into the comedy without trivializing them or jarringly pivoting towards a drama series.

IMDb

Don't get me wrong, I missed Anna Faris, especially the first 4 or 5 episodes of the 8th season. But all the characters have been given bigger roles and have risen to the occasion.
