Sick Note (2017–2018)
3/10
If you're a big fan of the actors, sure.

Otherwise this is just too busy and disorganized to be a really enjoyable show. Ridiculous plot devices spring out of nowhere to save the day almost endlessly and the characters are all fairly one-note. I know it's a comedy but what laughs there are seem aimed at those who think someone wetting themselves is the height of hilarity. What good could have come from replacing a brutally overacting Don Johnson with a wooden Lindsay Lohan who seems to be rushing through her lines as quickly as possible (were they trying to one-up their own casting of a talentless, washed up former American "star")? Becca and the woman who plays Ash's wife are both easy to look at but are stuck in roles as a tramp and a dimwit, respectively. They deserved better, as did Nick Frost. Speaking of Frost's character - could you beat me over the head with more Harry Potter references? I don't know the movies so I probably missed half as many but I know shameless pandering when I see it.
