"This show was so spot-on, I loved it! Laura Dern’s character was great, and her portrayal of her was amazing! She should have won an Emmy for this. Hated for it to get cancelled! This is the kind of show we need in the world now… On HBO"

"This was a pleasant surprise. Did not know what a great actress Laura Dern is. And I so enjoyed the creative plot and heartfelt writing of Michael White, not to mention his acting was also great. I was intrigued by the premise of this show. Following an emotional crisis and breakdown the lead character completes a lengthy rehab in which she then looks at life as a true gift and now wants to give back. But can you really just go through life with rose colored glasses on. So she decides she wants her life to now have purpose and meaning. But the day to day obstacles she encounters makes that goal rather difficult to achieve. I found this whole idea to be thought provoking. It’s too bad this show is only 2 seasons but it did wrap up at a good stopping point. "

"Precursor themes to White Lotus. Funny, deep, sometimes satirical. Amy is both lovable and annoying in a realistic way. Laura Derb does an amazing job and I love Mike White’s character!"

"I could watch Laura Dern have mental breakdowns for days, and now I have. There are times I’m not sure if I should be cheering on her journey to self development or cringing at her lack of self awareness, but it was an emotional rollercoaster I enjoyed riding. "
