Oh, what an absolute joy. I don't generally fall in love with TV, BUT the performances from the leads, the brief but memorable side characters, and the genuinely funny writing won me over. This is my favourite show of the year, because Seamus is self-absorbed and cringy, Janet is pathetic and crude, and yet Seamus is charming and caring, and Janet is forthright and loving, and they somehow make you root for them. The best scenes are like watching old married couples who truly love each other spar, banter, laugh, and touch. What a lovely show, that takes a sharp turn from saccharine in the 5th episode. Loved it, season 2 please.
