ken661 8 min. was as long as I could watch the 25 min. pilot. I found myself bored and uncomfortable. Tig Notaro is about as interesting as a paint chip and where the subject mater, cancer could have provided for dramatic (even funny) moments I was only reminded of how painfully sad losing a parent to cancer is.I decided to give this show a try after seeing Tig Notaro on Sarah Silverman's new show. Again I couldn't watch all of Tig's performance because she is so boring. I know this is harsh but it's true. Somehow this show was renewed for a second season. I have no idea why. There is so much overlooked talent out there and this person gets a show? I am baffled as to who would pay to produce a full season no less a second season on this show.

benstoy-23109 In the middle of season dos, love this woman to bits. People behind the show include Louis C.K. and Diablo Cody which should give you a clue. The vibe morphs from unspeakable irony to naked ignorance with occasional eruptions of Tim Robbins. Instead of canned laughter, the Buddha guffaws out loud. If Tg Notaro lived nearby, she'd have to get a restraining order to keep me away. Have to laugh, she's the anti-Southern belle...

Charles Herold (cherold) I had some hope for this dramedy after the first episode. While it's pretty dark material, it is handled with intelligence and occasional humor, and there was something about the tone that reminded me of Transparent.There's also John Rothman's fascinating character.And yet, after the second episode I decided to stop watching. It's all a little too sincere, a bit too focused on the drama at the expense of the comedy, but with a "comedy" quality to it that makes it not quite a drama.This seems like the sort of show some people would love, but I didn't connect with - or particularly like - the characters, and that made me lose interest.

Lesley J Morris Like most, I was looking for something to escape the everyday, I found it in One Mississippi. The realism is very intriguing, but more so is the ease of how each episode comes across. Writing and making it work on film is a talent, and there's lots of talent here. I had not heard of Tig Notaro before, I had no expectations. I wasn't hooked at first, but that soon changed. Notaro is true to herself, while portraying the angst of human nature, dealing with a haunting past and walking into an uncertain future, she brings it full circle in this dynamic and funny series. I applaud Amazon for taking this series up, and hope it continues, because I will continue to watch!
