Geordie Gray The Australian 10/03/2023
A chaotic comedy adapted from a one-woman play she wrote while in acting school. Go to Full Review Troy Patterson The New Yorker 05/09/2020
It's a one-woman bedroom farce. Go to Full Review Filipa Jodelka Guardian 11/28/2017
Given that Michaela Coel's incredible timing, warmth and gift for physical comedy basically make her, in my eyes, the second coming of Lucille Ball, I feel she could carry it off whatever. Go to Full Review Alex Casey New Zealand Herald 01/15/2019
There's something about the everyday locations that make the outrageous melodrama all the better. Go to Full Review Kayla Cobb Decider 12/19/2017
Michaela Coel's comedy about the awkward extremes of spirituality, sex, and relationships is much like its main character - proudly and loudly its own confusing thing. Go to Full Review Kasia Delgado Radio Times 11/28/2017
She's crude, confused and deeply human. If ever there was a show that deserved a second series, it was this. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
