Avoidance (2022– )
7/10
Easy to get this one wrong.
23 July 2022
Jonathan and Claire's relationship comes to an end, in between is their little boy Spencer, a six part series that shows how everyone tries to adapt to life's new circumstances.

I've read each of the reviews, and I think I can see the ones that watched the first one, or maybe just the first trip, I'd be the first to admit, I almost switched it off. I really didn't get into this at all....

..however, in episode four, something changes, it's almost as if the show finds its place, it doesn't provide rip roaring comedy, but it does become so enjoyable, if you stick with it, you're rewarded with a top notch series finale.

The characters take their time to warm up, I did take to Courtney straight away, and it was interesting to see her relationship with Spencer develop.

It isn't raucously funny, but it's Romesh, so it's humorous, and wonderfully dry, it does get funnier as it progresses.

No word on Series two yet, I hope there's more, as there is definitely potential here.

7/10.
