This is a lovely little show with some wonderful and restrained performances, especially by the actor playing Tig's stepfather. I am seriously bummed by its cancellation.

Tig Notaro's infamous 2012 stand-up set at Largo proved that cancer, like anything else, can be funny. Yes, it can. Yes, it can. If you disagree, cool. But you're wrong. That's like saying "broccoli doesn't taste good." Maybe not to you, but to someone, broccoli is delicious. Comedy is subjective, and a joke based on any topic or situation, no matter how horrible or distasteful to you, has the potential be funny to someone. Maybe not you. That's fine. But someone. Trying to apply a "cancer isn't funny" rule is preposterous, conceited, and futile.Okay, here's my opinion of the show, if you care. The second season was weaker than the first. Plot lines started to feel splintered and diverged from the main character's story. Common pitfall of many second season shows. I guess this was more of a rebuttal to another reviewer than a straightforward helpful review. Hope it doesn't keep you up at night.Insomnia isn't funny.

I loved this show and I love the characters. I found it exceptionally human and warm, with real people and real challenges. Tig seems like a person I would be thrilled to know. The humor is dry and witty and fun. This series explores the complexity of relationships and is courageous in its approach to the subject matter. Thank you for opening up the conversation.

Season 1 was wonderful. Unfortunately, losing an election has ruined this show. It is in full tantrum mode. The first episode started with an engaging fantasy sequence of Tig's imagination running wild when another character takes her by the hand to lead her into a party in progress. But from that point on, there was nothing but negativity.
