Season 3 – Getting On

2015 Comedy List
100% Tomatometer 11 Reviews
Based on the BBC series of the same name, "Getting On" follows the daily lives of overworked nurses and doctors attending to the needs of elderly female patients at Mt. Palms Hospital in Long Beach, Calif. Even as they attempt to serve their charges in a rundown extended-care wing of a hospital mired in red tape, the staff members deal with life's complications and conflicting agendas, both professional and personal. The ragtag crew includes Dr. Jenna James, whose dreams of becoming a famous medical researcher died at Mt. Palms; Nurse Dawn, who might excel at her job if she didn't obsess over finding a boyfriend; Nurse DiDi, an example of how one's easy rapport with patients should inspire co-workers but doesn't; and Patsy De La Serda, a supervising nurse of ambiguous sexuality.

Neil Genzlinger New York Times [The three lead actresses] deliver with nuanced performances that turn quick glances or sighs into punch lines. Jun 14, 2018 Full Review Emily Nussbaum New Yorker Getting On, which is based on the acclaimed British original, and which is now in its final season on HBO, lingers in my mind as much as, if not more than, almost any other dark comedy, even in this era of exceptionally good options. Nov 16, 2015 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe This cult comedy is hysterical, and it's brutal, too, in its take on the health care industry and the way it cares for elders. Nov 10, 2015 Full Review Jared Canfield Screen Rant Though the morbid undertones of the show can't be avoided, particularly with elderly patients knocking on death's door, Getting On is a black-comedy of the highest order. Aug 14, 2018 Full Review Casey Newton The Verge More seriously, Getting On serves to document how our personal lives intersect with work in the most inconvenient of ways. Jun 14, 2018 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv Getting old, I can tell you, is not for wimps. Neither is Getting On. Nov 18, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
