The first episode ends in a tragedy that causes Beth to assess her life and this spills over into the next couple of episodes when she decides her future does not lie with Matt or the job that has caused her dissatisfaction. We also get to meet Jane (Laura Benanti), Beth’s less-than-helpful mother, as well as her world-weary sister Ann (Susannah Flood). In the opening episode, we follow Beth at the wine distributing company where she works and get to meet her infuriating boyfriend Matt (Kevin Kane) who works alongside her.

The character of Beth is a likeable one and as the series progresses, we get to experience her life and the various changes she decides to make along the way. Her character is warmer and more grounded than her usual spiky persona, which will be good news to anybody who isn’t a fan of her stand-up comedy and her sometimes outrageous behaviour. While much of the series is about Beth self-reflecting on her life, it’s still light and funny, as can be expected with Amy Schumer as the star. You shouldn’t expect this show to be overly-serious or maudlin however, despite the emotional predicaments Beth finds herself in. Admittedly, you might not relate to Beth’s unusual marriage proposal but if you have ever hated your job and lost somebody close to you, you might relate to the crises she goes through when trying to determine the next course of her life.
