Lovesick's ribald premise is elevated throughout by an empathetic sweetness, carefully measuring both the blessings and curses left in the wake of failed relationships -- STDs and all.

This British series sets the gold standard for charming rom-com entertainment. Go to Full Review Emily Nussbaum The New Yorker 03/24/2020
The title suggests The Hangover marinated in home-brew backwash, but Scrotal Recall is in fact the most delicate of these shows... Like a folded-paper fortune-teller revealing someone's fate. Go to Full Review Johanna Schneller Toronto Star 03/24/2020
Show creator Tom Edge pulls off a neat trick: he's made a series about failed relationships that manages to be melancholic, yet hopeful and romantic. Go to Full Review Charlotte Harrison Charlotte Sometimes Goes to the Movies 11/06/2020
The result is a realistic romantic comedy, funny and sweet yet occasionally dark and melancholy. It's well-written, charming and immensely feelgood. Go to Full Review Olivia Armstrong Decider 03/25/2020
A smart, racy, brutally honest series about how much it sucks to be a teen and twentysomething looking for love. Go to Full Review Irish Independent Staff Irish Independent 03/25/2020
Tom Edge's script is sharp, Johnny Flynn is a likeable main character, and the whole mood is quite sweet when it might easily have been squalid. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Avi J @RT34992210 Mar 14 One of the best shows ever! See more Aneesh T @Aneesh Dec 19 Absolute banger. Amazing cast paired with beautiful storytelling. Love how each episode reveals a little more about the characters, and the humor is perfectly on point. 100% recommended. See more jayfrayy @RT84149407 09/23/2023 Really great show. I am a huge fan of How I met your mother and this show filled the whole in m,y life after finishing it. It is well written, funny and most importnantly real. The only thing I didn't like was the main characters actor. I really wish they cast somebody else, he played the character too winey and awkard I thought. But even with that the show is still a must watch if youre into this kind of thing. All the other actors/ characters were phenomenal. See more Toms c @tomscove 06/11/2023 I had low expectations and was blown away. Great writing is brought to life by an awesome cast. See more 04/14/2020 Beautiful, clever and sweet. See more 12/12/2016 I truly hope the series is renewed for season 3. See more Read all reviews
