Mal B @EmB1973 Aug 11 Unlikeable characters. After 2 episodes still going nowhere Ground Hog Day meets Pulp Fiction minius the meaning, heart and humour. Oh, and plot - that's missing too. See more Alex W Jun 17 Bit late to review this but worth it after finally discovering it. Russian Doll season 1 is absolutely brilliant. Some people criticize it as another Groundhog Day parody but it’s more like a Groundhog point in time for our main character who dies on the night of her 36th birthday but keeps respawning at a certain point in time, sometimes she’ll make it to the following day and then die again. Obviously the best thing about this show is one Natasha Lyonne, she’s so funny in this, her facial expressions when Nadia starts thinking she’s going crazy or when things get strange are top notch, her losing battle with the stairs is easily the funniest part of the show, for anyone who adored Lyonne in OITNB, you’d honestly think that Nadia Vulvokov is basically what Nicky Nichols would be like if she hadn’t been locked up in Litchfield As brilliant as Lyonne is as Nadia though, I actually relate to Charlie Barnett’s character Alan Zaveri a lot more, someone who wants everything to go absolutely perfectly in life and never asks for help, it absolutely breaks me to see him at the end of episode 6 when he finally remembers his first death and it’s heartbreaking when you find out what it is This show is definitely worthy of binging in one night, it starts off slowly plot wise but when Nadia first meets Alan properly it really picks up.

The actors were so charming and amazing in portraying their characters, you feel almost a part of it. Definitely something I’d recommend. We don’t get such quick and awesome series nowadays anymore.

Very hard to stay in the story. tried watching it three times and all three times, just didn't like it. See more David C 06/10/2024 I caught this after it had aired. Another 'Ground Hog Day' (knowing it's not the first film/TV show to have a time loop, just the best) I thought, I wonder what this brings to the table. To my surprise it was a true delight. The protagonists continual death, the worsening of her life in every loop with friends never having been made, jobs not done. It was more of a trip across a mulitverse seeing different versions of the protagonist rather than the typical fixed time loop stpry. Ingenious and insightful, Pohler and Lyonne are to be congratulated. See more Read all reviews
