The series was touching and humorous. Some of the humor was a bit crass for my taste, but overall it didn't detract from the series. I expect it from Gervais. I thought the first and second series were outstanding, but except for certain moments, I wasn't a big fan of the third series.
The bench talks between Tony and Anne were the best part of the series. Tony's friendship with Nurse Emma was also good to watch play out. Some other over-the-top characters added humor and were fine when in small doses. The only one I couldn't stomach was the psychiatrist.
The third series had a different feel and didn't seem to be edited as well as the previous two. I assume, covid. The saving grace for the third series for me was seeing Anne and Paul together, because I am a long-time "Ever Decreasing Circles" fan.
Gervais gave us a realistic story of how the one left behind feels, and I know that because I recently lost my husband of over 25 years. My dog was also my rock, but sadly, she joined my husband last month.
