a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

This show is a hit and it is clever and subtle enough for you to laugh and learn at the same time. The actors do a great job and the main doctor, Laurie Metcalf, is pure funny in a way that makes you unsure whether to laugh or go hmm. I love her comedic movement and timing. This show is a sleeper hit and outdoes other shows on HBO. Clever writing disguised as simple lines of conversation always gets me laughing because it doesn't dumb down the audience and makes us feel as if we are in on the inside joke. The cast is fine tuned and believable in their roles. I hop this show gets the credit it deserves. Adapted from a British comedy it is a touch above.

This show brings out an experimental comedy with smart writing, great cast of characters, and best of all, no cheap laughs. While it may take a couple of viewing, you just new a acquired taste for this show. If you're the type of person that's into health-care you love the show Getting On. This show brings on so many emotions into 30 minutes. This show also packs A great cast of actors as well. Niecy Nash is a new nurse just coming into a wing of the hospital for extended-care patients (elderly people). Alex Borstein is the senior nurse dealing with some of the crazy people on the ward. Then finally the Head nurse starring Laurie Metcalf.Getting On, on HBO, has strong language, other than that, deserve a shot to become a great show. For those that say this show is terrible just remember another show called "it always sunny in Philly" it started out different, and became a phenomenal show. Mark my words. This show will get better.

Entertaining show. Focuses on female elderly patients in a hospital and the doctors and nurses who treat them. Many of the patients have alzheimers and dementia so as sad as their circumstances are they seem for the most part unaware. So it seems more sad for those who work there.What seems most interesting and funny albeit very is the absurdity of it all. The patient who dies on her 87th birthday. The nurse decides to eat the birthday cake that her sister had made and brought to the hospital. Her attitude being "well, it's not like SHE's going to eat it" and then after eating the cake is caught off guard by the sister who comes for a visit and the nurse has to break the news of her death while trying to conceal the chocolate frosting on her teeth.Or of course the first scene where they have a lengthy conversation involving several hospital personal who try to figure out who pooped in a chair and how they should deal with it.Not sure if I love it just yet, but it has potential.

I have no idea if the producers and writers thought they were making a funny, edgy show that would rival Showtime's wonderfully funny and definitely edgy show, Nurse Jackie, but they FAILED.I wasted thirty minutes I can never get back, watching this utter disaster of a show. I didn't crack a smile once, nor did I even giggle. There was just nothing funny about this show. I actually wanted to cry, when I realized I just actually sat through this disgusting show.I suppose this is a spoiler, but I'm honestly not sure, so I'll mark it as such just in case: Non-stop talk about feces. Really? THIS is what Hollywood thinks people want to watch and hear about?End Possible spoiler.Low-class trash of a show is what this is. Don't waste your time!
