Written, directed by and starring Julia Davis (creator of the original British series "Camping"), "Sally4Ever" is an HBO/Sky Atlantic co-production about a love affair that quickly spirals out of control. Mid-level marketing executive Sally, in an attempt to spice up her personal life, sets in motion a series of events that lead her to embarking on a wild affair with Emma and calling it off with long-term, predictable partner David. Unlike Sally, Emma is a free spirit and impulsive. She exudes sexuality and brings excitement to Sally's mundane existence. Yet before Sally knows it, Emma has commandeered her life in every single way.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

The outrageously singular Julia Davis delivers yet another impeccable performance in Sally4Ever, masterfully walking the line between side-splitting and cringe-worthy comedy.

There are also moments of proper brilliance. Go to Full Review Graeme Blundell The Australian 02/08/2019
I found it very funny for all its rawness, viciousness and cruelty and I admire Davis's fearlessness and the masterful way she makes awful people so damned likable. Go to Full Review Judy Berman TIME Magazine 01/02/2019
Julia Davis breathes new life into it with this tart miniseries... Go to Full Review James Walton The Spectator 12/19/2018
In theory, Davis's utter fearlessness is to be applauded. In practice, it still is - particularly as the brilliantly repellent action is accompanied by brilliantly repellent one-liners. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

12/09/2021 Julia Davis has been stuck in a career cycle of diminishing returns for a while now, churning out repetitive, predictable Dark Comedy. Sally4ever is the latest, with Davis reduced to super gross-out moments, presumably to distract from the lack of any decent writing or characterisation. Even the impressive cast can't rescue this mess, and viewers are forced to endure characters so lacking in any depth or humanity, it becomes a weary, camp pantomime for adults. It's Davis by numbers at this point. I hope she's able to find the spark she's lost and stop phoning in these self tribute acts. See more Primo 1 @Matou 09/13/2021 I love this show, its so cheeky... Laughed out so loud cause I've actually encountered characters like Emma in my life time. See more 04/07/2020 I started skipping ahead by 10 second intervals just to get close to the end of the episode(s). I only made it though 2 of them. I'm upset I wasted my time on this. This isn't funny. It's hard to watch. Emma's character makes you not want to watch further. The whole thing is cringe worthy. This is honestly the first HBO series I haven't loved. What in tf were they thinking? See more 03/09/2020 The problem with Sally4Ever is how easy viewers categorize it as gross, when it very much earns all those disgusting jokes. The scatological humor sits by the sidelines of incredibly precise comedic performances, painfully sharp writing, and an engaging storyline that is never distracted. See more 03/16/2019 I'm probably not the right audience for this one. Gave it a shot but found it boring and poorly written. Skip. See more 02/17/2019 As good and nighty night. Julia Davis is a treasure See more Read all reviews
