I was so lucky that Hulu recommended this show to me. It was such a terrific combination of sweet, funny, and heartfelt. The show revolves around Nina, a late 20-something post-doc autistic woman who works at the museum in Glasgow as a paleontologist. She has an incredible relationship with her sister, and Nina's structured life is about to come to an end when her sister announces her engagement to a guy she has only been dating for 6 weeks.
The story and the acting was just wonderful. The creator and actress playing Nina is Ashley Storrie, who is autistic. She handles the balance of entertainment and neurodivergence beautifully. She is so personable and likeable that I was sincerely sad when I finished the last episode. I actually binged the entire thing in one sitting, and it definitely left me wishing for a second season. It's doubtful because this wrapped up beautifully, but I will definitely be looking for more of Ashley Storrie's work.
It was produced by "Fleabag" producer Two Brothers, and it shows. Fleabag is a brilliant show.
Watch this series. It's really excellent. (And Fleabag too.)
