Shrinking

"If you’re someone who enjoys shows about #quirky people & #relationships, then I think you’ll get some good #feels & #laughs out of this new show on #AppleTV+. It’s a #character_driven, slightly #absurd, #darkcomedy #drama & there’s good chemistry between all the #relatable characters. This #dramedy focuses on Jason Siegel’s character, Jimmy, who is a troubled therapist going through #grief & experiencing some #anxiety after the death of his wife, as he’s trying to repair his #relationship with his daughter Alice (Genera+ion's Lukita Maxwell) & getting advice when he can from the people closest to him in his life (which include fellow #therapists played by Jessica Williams & Harrison Ford. There’s also a neighbor played by Christa Miller, and his lawyer best friend played by Michael Urie). It’s good #hilarious_mania & you can see that Harrison Ford is having #fun with his role as Jason Siegel’s cantankerous, #sarcastic colleague & mentor. The #absurdity of it all is the #unconventional #therapy that gets employed here. Each episode is only 30 minutes."

"Brilliantly hilarious and heartwarming. I found myself with a permanent grin in every episode I watched. "

"It is going to be really really hard for this not to end up being the funniest show of the year. I could talk individually about how great each and every cast member are but it’s always going to be the best ever Jessica Williams who’s going to steal the show. Also pulls the heartstrings all over. This has one of my favorite “tropes”. The found family after tragedy. I also have a weird Star Wars theory I won’t share here. But the season finale sure felt like a series finale, which is a serious bummer if true. "

"This was the best new show I have seen in a while. My wife and I loved it. It’s probably best categorized as a dramedy, but it’s LOL humor with a lot of touching characters and situations. The cast and casting are both amazing and it will be a crime if Harrison Ford and Jessica Williams don’t both get Emmys for this because they were just fantastic. And Jason Segel is great as always. Season 1 just finished and I strongly recommend this as a truly #bingeworthycomedy. Enjoy!"

"Harrison Ford is still a brat but now a more mature brat. Comedy with loopy characters and a serious back story. Fun engaging and some depth."

"Perusing for a new show and found something I liked enough to binge the whole dang thing "

"This show was alright. I'm not sure I could even recount the plot or storyline, but I know it kept me entertained, and I liked seeing Harrison Ford on screen again. "

"Our new favorite show. If you’re looking for a dark comedy with equal parts effed up human behavior, vulnerability and sweetness, this is it. "

"This show has it all. It's so touching, and really smart humor. It's on Apple + right now (May 2023). "

"Really enjoying this! Perfect dramaty with the perfect balance of drama and comedy - GREAT comedy "
