Yep. If not the best. It's been so long since a TV show has had all of the right components and combines them perfectly to create this masterpiece; The show revolves around an over-arching theme of mental illness which makes for uncomfortable yet gripping viewing. From attempted suicide to death, Flowers guarantees laughter even when you know you shouldn't.
Flowers also has a tiny cast of characters which works as an incredible advantage. All of the characters appear to be very one dimensional such as (Shun the comedy relief) but as the series progresses we see each and every character develop at a remarkable pace yet non seems rushed. The strong character development is matched by pristine casting choices; Olivia Colman, Julian Barrat and Sophia Di Martino all preform perfectly in their respective roles to create a constant atmosphere of unease and tension.
Aiding the atmosphere is the choice of music for the show. Screeching sounds throughout reflect the tone of the show and never let you forget that this is not a normal family.
Despite all of the gloom. (I think) Flowers is a wonderful comedy that mixes humble, horrifying and hilarious moments to craft one of the best TV shows.
