About
"Improvised cringe comedy delivered one webcam call at a time"
A self-absorbed, spectacularly unqualified therapist named Fiona decides that real therapy takes too long, so she invents three-minute webcam sessions instead. What follows is a mostly improvised, deadpan comedy told almost entirely through split-screen video chats, as her narcissism collides with a rotating cast of needy clients and her own tangled personal life. It's fast, dry, and cringe-driven rather than plot-driven, riding on sharp improv chemistry more than story arcs. Episodes are short and bite-sized, making it easy to binge in odd pockets of time, but the humor is very much an acquired taste.
Watch it for
the razor-sharp improvised performances from a cast clearly having fun skewering therapy-speak.
Maybe skip if
you need strong plotting, since episodes are short, format-bound, and mostly riff-based.
