Review #7920 - Dated: 1st of April, 2013
Author: kymmage |
I hadn't had any exposure to this prior to being given it to review. All I knew was the rough plot. It sounded like it could be quite a lot of fun though and I was game. This series has a lot in common with IT Crowd, and The Inbetweeners. Its crude, and has a bit of grittiness to it. But its also incredibly polished comedy. I found myself instantly in love with the characters and the situation they found themselves in.
I will happily admit to burning through all 7 episodes in one evening. And this on a work night of all things! Needless to say, I thoroughly loved the whole thing and will be looking out for series 2 which I understand has definitely been made. Yay. I related so much to a lot of the content of the show. Having been through the whole pregnancy/new mum thing. I understood the feelings of uncertainty, the not feeling ready and the panic of certain situations like coffee groups and ante-natal.
I loved the honesty of the characters. At one point Alice says to a group that the thing she would miss the most was her immaturity. I laughed so hard, because I think its what we would all like to say. I also loved the three-way dynamic. The three of the group are so close, it's lovely. The birth at the end is really unconventional and I loved that about this too. It went to show that just because something isn't the "done thing", doesn't mean it has to be a disaster. It was just nice to finally see that depicted. I really can't wait to see where they take this series next. Thanks so much Roadshow and KIWIreviews for introducing me to this.
