Awkward
markgorys6 August 2018
This was a really awkward show to watch. I'm not referring to the subject matter of the show here, it's just awkward to watch it because the comedy in it is so very bad. I liked some of the actors but this show was just really hard to get through because of the bad stories and writing. Many bad jokes requiring the rolling of eyes, FYI.

A silly and funny comedy about some tough issues
celestialeccentric26 July 2020
I love this show and show it to everyone I know. Wish that a studio would have picked it up. With a bigger budget I imagine they could do some amazing things.

Heartfelt show about being who you are
wrenhandman2 March 2021
I may be a little biased here, on account of how I helped write the show, but this is a heartwarming story sure to bring a smile to your face. It's authentic, honest, and utterly goofy.

Excellent Trans Comedy by Trans Artists!
madmcdan12 March 2021
I'm happy that we're seeing more trans representation in the media recently, but it's still the case that almost all trans characters are reduced to their transness as a personality.

Not so for the Switch! With a trans and nonbinary cast and creative team, this show is a trrasure trove of messy, hilarious, human people who also happen to be trans. THIS is what the trans and gender nonconforming community deserves when it comes to representation.

I peed myself laughing. More than once.

Quirky and Fun
rlangill-0421429 May 2017
The Switch is an inventive and creative show that dares to test the boundaries of society and has fun doing it. The shows strength is the ability to present many questions and issues in reference to the seldom addressed issue of transitioning, and does it in an entertaining, quirky, and fun way. The cast is fantastically expressive, the one-off cut away scenes are hilarious and perfectly timed, and each episode deals with an extremely relevant social scenario. Overall the show is quirky, odd, enjoyable, and overall just straight up fun to watch!

Heartwarming tale of a fish out of water and her bumbling contract killing roommate

Warning: Spoilers
Speaking as a completely unbiased and perfectly objective viewer (who also *coincidentally* happens to be the showrunner and co-star). This show is frickin' awesome. We worked with a wonderful group of people to make something heartwarming and violent.

Uh... I mean heartwarming and *hilarious.*

But, yeah, it's a sitcom with a body count.

Don't worry. All the bodies are oil lobbyists who were trying to kill everyone else on the planet.

I just wish there were more. Episodes that is.

Turning lived experience into comedy
vyrasa27 August 2021
Being trans can be really tough, especially when a lot of people are so uninformed about issues these days. It's really nice to see a show with so much representation, diversity, and heart. I only wish they could have gotten a second season!
