While another binge-watched all ten episodes, penning: ‘Just finished all of #TooMuch and it’s so brilliantly layered between comedy and heartfelt,
‘Megan Stalter is fantastic, and it’s thrilling to see her at the helm of a lead role with so many layers that also shows off the breadth of what she can do both comedically and as an actor.’;
Another viewer was left reaching for the tissues as they penned: ‘Binged the hell out of this. Loved it, so raw and funny and deep. Made me cry multiple times.’;
While one posted: ‘I flew through all 10 episodes of #TooMuch. The narrative is indeed too much at times, stuffing so much in, but Megan Stalter is phenomenal, and I fell in love with Will Sharpe all over again.’
The new series is billed as an ‘ex-pat rom-com for the disillusioned who wonder if true love is still possible, but sincerely hope that it is’.
The synopsis reads: ‘Jessica is a New York workaholic in her mid-thirties, reeling from a broken relationship that she thought would last forever and slowly isolating everyone she knows.
‘When every block in New York tells a story of her own bad behaviour, the only solution is to take a job in London, where she plans to live a life of solitude like a Bronte sister.
‘But when she meets Felix, a walking series of red flags, she finds that their unusual connection is impossible to ignore, even as it creates more problems than it solves.
