As title! If you don't have/missed this on netflix, I implore you to watch it.

It is funny and warm and lovely. Perfect comfort tv that you can rewatch and find new things to laugh at every time.

(And I have a personal soft spot for all the b roll of the calm summer scenes as well.)

It was highly recommended to me by a very good friend-watched the first episode or 2 and thought "well she doesn't get my humour after all"

After about a year I went back after so many raved about it and stuck with it and I absolutely loved it.
Catherine O'Hara is superb but the whole cast are brilliant!!!!

The first season the weakest and Roland is very off putting initially but it all settles and it is one of the best ever.
I re-watch constantly (but often skip season one 😂)

edited to say sorry to malign season one-it is important to set it up but it is honestly just hilarious and touching and clever

Edited

I watched season one and thought it was absolutely awful. Maybe I'll give it another chance..

Thanks @sweetpickle2, I’ve never heard that phrase before.

I’ve never seen it! Been wondering whether to give it a go!

I think you need to watch half the first series before making your mind up. And by the end of series 2, it has cemented itself into greatest thing ever, and yet it somehow keeps improving.

I watched episode 1 again recently and I was surprised how stereotypical and unlikeable the characters were. Characters that have all grown into literally my favourite people.

I am envious of people watching it for the first time. But it stands up so well to a rewatch that I still feel I get stuff out of it on a third watch.

I agree, I started watching it and thought it was rubbish and gave up.
Went back to it a few years later and got hooked.
In fairness, I think the characters do get a lot better as it goes along.
