Let's be realistic.
... View MoreGreat movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
... View MoreThe movie's only flaw is also a virtue: It's jammed with characters, stories, warmth and laughs.

... View MoreI found this show to be incredibly boring with unlikable characters. The psychiatrist is a decent actor at least but Michael is not a good actor and also just a terrible character to try to root for or care about. The stories were poorly written and unfunny. Just nothing I can recommend about this show at all.
... View MoreThe only reason I would recommend trying to watch this show is to see how long you can put up with it before slamming your head against the wall. This show is incredibly boring.
... View MoreDepression is not funny. Shows about depression are even less funny.Some people must get some kind of sick, vicarious thrill out of watching somebody's life go down the toilet. I'm not one of them. This turkey has apparently managed to run for 2 seasons (where?). I was ready to pull the plug after 15 minutes, but I didn't -- because I foolishly thought that it must have some redeeming value since it did last for 2 seasons.I was wrong.And if the depressing story isn't bad enough to make you want to shoot yourself, it presents us with a cast of cartoon-like stereotypical characters to fill out the other roles.Don't watch this -- you deserve better.
... View MoreWe're only 3 episodes in, but in reply to the horrid User Rating - what gives? - I thought I'd provide a counterpoint.As is typical for a Don McKellar comedy, the humour is a mix of trademark sitcom and really, really strange. Detailing the interactions between ultra-neurotic Michael (Watts) and his semi-neurotic therapist (Martin), each episode tends to focus around a psychological problem Michael is tasked to address with "homework." In the first episode, it's talking to a stranger, and in the third, it's vomiting. The latter is a good example of the bizarre humour: there's something strangely funny about two guys on a park bench outside the Parliament Buildings, pretending to vomit to see if anyone will notice.LEGACY: Anyway, all you really need to know is that these folks are many of the same ones behind the critically acclaimed Slings and Arrows, Twitch City, and (Tony-winning musical) Drowsy Chaperone. If you liked any of that, be sure to at least check this out.
