This is not about the force that is stopping you from flying off the face of the earth. Sorry.
An American series from Starz about a support group for people who tried to kill themselves and ultimately a dramedy about the hollowness of modern life under our way of life.
Enter Lily Champagne, a cute and yet depressive girl who works at a department store and is completely alienated from life duo to her self-proclaimed incapability to "feel" and her new reluctant love interest, Robert Collingsworth, a successful but unhappy ophthalmologist who just can't let his deceased wife go.
After both of them pass throw failed suicide attempts, we get to know the rest of the main cast, other suicidals who attend the support group at a church: Dogg, the grump black man in a wheelchair who runs the group; Shawna a failed model on her forties; Adam, a problematic kid from a rich home; Jorge a fireman who dreams to be a stand-up comedian; and Carla, a "dream housewife".
As we flashback into their suicide attempts and follow their lives, we watch the dramedy of them trying to fix themselves up following Dogg's main rule: "You have to change the person you were when you attempted to kill yourself."
- Cliffhanger: the show ends with Robert getting shot and Lily trying to take the bullet for him.
- One Word Title
- Seasonal Rot: If the first few episodes are quite interesting, the show becomes pretty bad pretty soon.
