I don't know if the link will work, but it's a BBC series called Am I being unreasonable? Plot seems to be ordinary woman, grumbles about her husband, cat is missing, sits on the sofa with wine most evenings until an intriguing new friend at the school gates appears to have a dark secret. Like a cross between Motherland and The Stranger. I mean if it includes difficult neighbours/ parking/ in-laws it would just take the biscuit, but still!

watching the trailer, I don’t think so….

Interesting...YANBU <scans thread for journos>

@PuppyFeet Oh I thought the trailer had definite overtones! Maybe the title just enhanced my confirmation bias.😀

Nic’s lonely, and the cat’s missing. She’s bored at the fete until new mum Jen arrives. Nic’s thrilled to meet a kindred spirit, but is Jen all she seems, and can Nic’s secret stay hidden?

I predict that Nic's secret is the incredibly outing hobby that her husband does that she can't reveal on MN.

Next season: a spin-off from the point of view of the cat (who turns out to be a Men's Rights Activist), entitled "Am I The Asshole?"

I would actually watch that @Teddeh !

At this rate, even if their inspiration didn’t come from this forum, it’s likely we will help them write the next season with this thread!! 😀

So who is playing the character based on Justine Roberts? I'm not going to make suggestions as to who it should be!

Is there a podcast where Aibu are read out?

FlosCampi · 02/09/2022 12:10

Probably Julia Roberts, because of the name similarity, in feisty Erin Brockovich mode!

@autienotnaughty that would definitely add a dimension, especially if they were read out in the correct accent of the poster- I "hear" AIBU in very bland BBC English tones!

If it doesnt have a roast chicken that can feed four adults for a week I aint watching it

I thought that. Does Daisy May Cooper lurk amongst us?! As long as someone LTB and gets their ducks in a row whilst snapping and farting and eating a massive salad I shall be pleased.
