Life & Beth

I like some, but not all of Amy Schumer's past material. While I am not a super-fan, I appreciate that she can push the edge and I always respect that even if it doesn't appeal. I thought this would be worth a look.

It didn't start well. I almost bailed during the first episode. None of the characters were likeable. There didn't seem to be any chemistry among the cast. It was just awkward. They hooked me at the end of the first episode, so we decided to keep going.

It takes a couple of episodes, but it gains momentum. The cast and crew start to get a working flow, and the story line moves between broad humor and serious issues.

It is worth watching, but you will have to be patient with it.

Stop hating on Amy Schumer. This show is lovely. It's funny, sad and well made. The acting is great. Also a big shout out to the girl who plays young Beth. Amy deserves more Credits.

Although I don't relate to the situations at all I felt them. This is a very honest and raw experience and it was superbly delivered. The characters were perfect and it's as if you really got to know them. The pain and joy were so authentic and written perfectly. What a nice series!

People are so quick to judge Amy Schumer. Give her a chance. People evolve and grow. This isn't her usual material. I don't think I've seen this side of her. It's serious and somber mixed with dark dry humor. It seems more adult.

So for those wondering, its really *not* her usual raunchy shenanigans. It's a woman dealing with life's various traumas, with a different sense of humor.

I enjoyed this show. It actually made me laugh out loud at times, which takes a lot! It's refreshing and well acted. It's a welcome change of pace for Amy who plays a more realistic character. It's charming and enjoyable.
