I had my doubts the first few episodes. It seemed almost neurotically placid and monotonous, albeit genuinely funny...neurotically funny. But as I got further into the series, I fell in love. When the episodes got longer, the characters' personality and life seemed to expand, letting you really get to know the characters. I've seen reviews that say things like "Dr. Goode never grew as a character." But I found her more "human" as I got deeper into the series, whereas in the beginning she seemed like a basket case. Don't get me wrong, she's a basket case the entire series. She never grew into an endearing character, but she's one of those characters you just love to hate. I've never actually laughed out loud in this show, which means next to nil, because I find it hard to actually laugh when it comes to television. But once again, it has nothing to do with the humor of the show, which I think is intended to be tongue in cheek. All in all, it's a great show. Anyone who has been in therapy, and better yet, has had a stereo typically terrible therapist at one point, can relate to this series. It's complete therapy satire and wit. Another thing I love about the show is the variation each episode. Each new episode comes a new celebrity with new insane, albeit funny, fake problems. I recommend it to anyone who loves deliciously sarcastic tongue in cheek humor, with bizarre, impractical story lines and dialogue. It's nutty but it's sophisticated.

This is a bit of short-attention-span theater for those of us who like a quick-witted catty comedy. It's not entirely superficial, but it can often float in that direction. Dr. Goode is an atrocious psychologist who's almost entirely consumed with herself above her patients. Though she commands seven hundred dollars a session, she is also apparently unaware that it's illegal to share her patients' personal problems with anyone outside the session. This causes quite a bit of conflict between her and her ever-changing list of clients, who are all b-to-c list celebs. The comedy comes mainly from improv. Some of it plays into the plot, some doesn't. But, either way, the plot from show-to-show is loose and seemingly thrown together in the editing room. But the show has a solid supporting cast, which is really the main reason to watch. Steve Landsberg and Candace Brown especially are very very funny. Wenworth is also funny, but she is a bit tough to take after a few minutes. It's a show that seems to be almost there. Wentworth and Co. are smart and talented, but they haven't found a truly watchable pitch yet. Until they do, the show will remain an acquired taste.

A film about people I despise, with issues I don't care about. (This review is too short, so I'll just add that this film was made by melodramatic, empty-headed people for that same audience!)

I just discovered this on Netflix and can't get over how gifted Alexandra Wentworth is as both the writer and lead actor of this hilarious show. Funny & snappy dialogue paired with all kinds of visual hilarity, makes for a super amusing look into the "therapy" sessions of Hollywood celebs. The guest stars are all deadpan funny & the regular characters each shine in their own nutty ways. Their office interactions are as brilliant as the ones Dr. Goode has with her famous clients & hapless fiancé. Pay attention to the "art" behind Lola's desk in all its incarnations, including in the opening credits! And don't miss the little hand-written notations in the illustrated opening credits. More Wentworth genius! Warning: The show is *not* for everyone. If you're easily offended by sexually explicit references OR four-letter words, this show is not for you, otherwise, get ready for a wacky ride. Funny funny woman! ~NN PS: The funniest episode for me was the one with Joel Madden! Brilliant writing *and* acting from start to finish!)

This is a fast pace series that is about a psychologist to the stars, though she is completely unaware. Examples include not realizing that her clients that are former childhood stars are now adults. She lives at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. She gossips about her clients with just about anyone. The psychiatrist who shares an office with her doesn't have any patients and tries to steal hers. The show is fast paced to fit into the 15 minute format. If they expand to 30 minutes (hope hope hope), I hope they keep the blistering fast pace. VERY funny!
