Am I being unreasonable - on iplayer

MaryActsLikeSheDontCare · 14/01/2024 08:36

I thought Catastrophe was even better than Motherland

LadyWhitwell · 14/01/2024 08:43

The Duchess on Netflix. Katherine Ryan is absolutely hilarious 😂
It has many elements of motherland like school run politics but also a single mum trying to have another baby with her useless ex. I binged it in one sitting.

NeverMindIGuess · 14/01/2024 08:58

This thread has made me realise I watched an awful lot during my Mat Leave 🤣
Working Moms (my fav)
The Let Down
Catastrophe
The Duchess
Children ruin Everything
Young Sheldon

Except Am I being unreasonable I've watched all the suggestions so far 🙈

Not about mums/kids but I loved Starstruck on BBC iplayer. Very warm and funny.

WonderingWanda · 14/01/2024 09:14

Catastrophe

Bundtbake · 14/01/2024 09:27

Fleabag.

PollyOrange · 14/01/2024 10:18

Was going to suggest The Other One. It's great

longtompot · 14/01/2024 14:29

Back to Life is excellent.
This Country is also very good.
I loved Mum too, with Lesley Manville. Speaking of her, also really enjoyed The Magpie Murders, and another is on its way too.
There was a series on BBC 3 set in Wales, about a school girl and her dysfunctional family, her friendships and navigating relationships, In Her Skin.

It’s not really similar, but I like all the shows you’ve listed and am enjoying ‘children ruin everything’ on Netflix.

Camping…hilarious 😆

LenaLamont · 14/01/2024 14:43

Derry Girls, Catastrophe, Breeders

VelvetShrimp · 14/01/2024 14:43

I just finished watching "Such Brave Girls" with zero expectations and it was very funny. I'm also rewatching Kath & Kim, it's on netflix.

Brandyginger · 14/01/2024 14:43

Another vote for Catastrophe: better than motherland

Piemam · 14/01/2024 14:45

Another vote here for Children Ruin Everything (Netflix- 2 series and Canadian) great real sense of humour in the characters and storyline. Workin' Moms, you can see to its conclusion on Netflix, also Canadian and funny.

VelvetShrimp · 14/01/2024 14:45

And "Here We Go" is a hilarious and solid favourite of mine.

Interesting as I got bored very quickly with it. Love LOVE Motherland but have found nothing remotely as good.

Itsmeamandaberry · 14/01/2024 16:11

I really liked Fisk on Netflix. It's about an Australian lawyer and so funny.

DanceMumTaxi · 14/01/2024 16:17

The Other One

SnipRefusersSpouse · 14/01/2024 16:32
