This new show popped up on Netflix and I was told by a friend that we had to watch it, and I’m so glad we did. We thought we would watch a couple episodes and 5 hours later we burned thru the whole series. It was great. Well written and the acting was phenomenal. You won’t be disappointed.

It's premise (Two widows meet at a support group meeting, and become close friends) is not something that sounded interesting but were we wrong. Darkly comic at times and heartbreaking at others, it is utterly compelling and each episode just makes you want to watch the next. I highly recommend it, one of the best Netflix shows I have seen in a long time. Cain’t wait for season 2.
