[–] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (2 children) I tried the first episode and it just felt depressing, not funny at all. Never looked back. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) It's depressing in a good way. It handles the telling of depression as a central theme really well. But holy fuck does "The View from Halfway Down" (towards the end of the series) really make it uncomfortable in this regard. Do not watch it unless you're prepared for an overload of self reflection and existential dread. permalink fedilink source parent [–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 months ago (1 child) well it is about mental health disorders..handles it really well imo. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago Which is why I appreciate this thread, knowing that it gets better will help me give it another chance. permalink fedilink source parent
