As a huge fan of We Can Be Heroes, SHH, and Angry Boys, I basically knew this was going to be a great show. However I think this one has missed the mark. Don't get me wrong, Lilley does another fantastic job (as always) with Ja'mie. It just feels so repetitive. I went through the first 2 episodes without even laughing really, maybe cracking the odd smile. With the show focused just on Ja'mie it allows us more time to explore her life as opposed to her getting only a third of the screen time. In Lilley's past shows it seemed very fresh to keep changing scenarios with his many other characters waiting in the wings, but now that its all Ja'mie it just seems so blahhh. Very girly humour, very familiar situations, and same old Ja'mie. I would still rate it an 7 or 8/10, but its far inferior to Lilley's other works. But what do I know, Im Canadian.
score 8/10
