      What to Know

      An intimate portrait of addiction and love, Feel Good is at once sweetly charming, uncomfortably complicated, and completely worth falling for.

      Stefano B Love and addictions and the lines in between. It's funny and wholesome, but also hard to watch if it triggers traumas.

      Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) Co-created by Martin and playwright Joe Hampson, the story was palpably personal and had the ring of authenticity. Yet although this opener had plenty of charm, it wasn't quite funny enough. Rated: 3/5 Dec 15, 2020 Full Review Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya AV Club It doesn't always feel good to watch it, but that's part of Feel Good's magic. It tells a story full of discomfort and insecurity with self-assuredness, empathy, and charm. Rated: A Dec 15, 2020 Full Review Joshua Kosman San Francisco Chronicle Martin, who co-wrote (with Joe Hampson) and stars, hits each mark of the rom-com formula faithfully -and then turns it around to make it feel unprecedentedly true to life. The result is at once uproarious and restlessly provocative. Dec 15, 2020 Full Review Katherine Singh Refinery29 One of the few TV shows centering lesbian relationships. Oct 4, 2022 Full Review Brian T. Carney Washington Blade Fresh and funny. May 20, 2022 Full Review Stefania Sarrubba The Skinny Don't let the short six-episode format fool you as Feel Good is packed with content. Martin has created a dramedy about addiction and the ways we try to deal with it that is both unsparing and relatable at once. Rated: 4/5 Dec 15, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
