Heartwarming and hopeful, this is a deeply human story that reminds us our stories are not defined by the worst choice we ever made, and that it’s never too late to write a different one, on your own terms.
By taking the focus off Sam for a bit in Season 2, Single Drunk Female does wander a bit from what made it such an appealing show in its first season. But since we liked the support system that formed around Sam so much, it feels less like scope creep to us and more like a show evolving and settling in for a long run.
Instantly charming and dense with talent.
The sensitive and relatable approach to its subject matter treats the seriousness of alcoholism and the difficulties of recovery with respect and dignity, the laughs a tonic rather than gratuitous. Recommended for all generations at the end of the alphabet.
While Black-D’Elia’s drunk acting is always welcome, it’s just as joyful to see her as the person Samantha evolves into.
There are times when “Single Drunk Female” is predictable, and the “drunk” acting is spotty in the flashbacks. But those flaws didn’t get in the way of my enjoyment.
Perhaps also due to the low episode count, the show stumbles on an occasional plot contrivance. ... Regardless, it’s impossible to fault Single Drunk Female too strongly when it remains consistently funny, clever, and affecting.
