This show was incredible and I could not stop watching. It'll keep you locked in since the episodes are short and leave you on a cliff hanger. I stayed up way past my bed time finishing it... dammit Martha.

The guy acted like he hated her while also secretly loving her and the attention she gave him. He also acted like he hated the writer who was diddling him but kept on going see him. Did he ever make a good decision the entire series? It was like watching a car accident in slow motion. I thought it was pretty good too though.

What makes it more interesting is the lead male actor, is the writer, who lived this actual experience.

He is telling his own story. This all happened.

I can't believe she was a lawyer.

It was pretty good but a little too much trans pumping.

It ruined my week. Watching that was extremely painful.
It’s my fault for watching. Cannot stand watching stupid people repeat stupidity day after day. My fault.

It was the polar opposite of a feel good show. It ruined my day and I felt kinda sick for watching it, like a trainwreck. Every time he did a comedy show, I could feel the unconfortableness (is that a word?) in the room and I didn't like it. Also, every time I thought that would be the end of the back and forth with the woman, he would do something to shoot himself in the foot and it was frustrating to watch.

I thought it was fantastic. But, buckle up for episode 4 those who haven’t watched. It gets real dark real quick

The dynamic of the stalker being a crazy bitch that he had to put in jail, but also the catalyst that helped him deal with his past trauma was fascinating and really well done

"Good luck with that transsexual"

I just got through with the series, thought it was OK. Ending was kinda weak. Gadd and Gunning were excellent.

One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Really explored some complex human emotions and how our own fricked up self views get us in some crazy arse situations. Really well acted as well from Gadd. I think this will win a lot of awards

I like that it inadvertently argues in favor of all gay dudes are just dudes who got sexual-trauma.

I didn't watch past episode five. I read the summaries for the last two episodes. What an unfunny downer that show was.

Interesting watch. Fairly well paced. Not starting with the rape was a smart decision (since no one else knew about it, we could watch and wonder why this guy was in need of positive reinforcement).

It appears to be a case of someone feeding off of being a victim. Even the show itself seems to be more of a plea for attention than a warning. With all of the "victims" out there crying about the tiniest slights, this guy seemingly went through hell and went back for more (again and again). The show doesn't do any favors for the other true victims out in the world.

With all of the darkness in this series, I was most uncomfortable watching his standup.
