This Amazon original series is a dark comedy inspired by events in comic Tig Notaro's life. Starring as a Los Angeles-based radio host of the same name, Tig is still dealing with serious health issues, including recovering from a double mastectomy. When her mother becomes gravely ill, Tig returns to her hometown in Mississippi, where she is forced on a painful (and at times, hilarious) journey that unearths uncomfortable truths about herself and her family. In order to heal, both physically and emotionally, Tig must reconnect with her roots before moving forward.

Riese Bernard Autostraddle It's whimsical and fresh and progressive and tender in parts and hopeful in other parts and compelling throughout. Oct 5, 2021 Full Review Emily Nussbaum The New Yorker There's a different kind of assertion of power at work here. It's a tricky story about telling tricky stories, and about how you make art from the ones you've been told not to tell. Oct 2, 2017 Full Review Erik Adams AV Club The second season of One Mississippi is an impressive balancing act. Rated: B+ Sep 11, 2017 Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof There is a certain sentimental aura that, without being excessive, involves the series perfectly integrated with what it is: a song to life. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 8, 2019 Full Review Steve Murray ArtsATL The second season of deadpan comic Tig Notaro's semi-autobiographical comedy is scary in unexpected ways. Dec 29, 2017 Full Review Kayla Cobb Decider While almost every comedy on television has some romantic element or subplot to it, relationships are often used as a plot device or feel like an afterthought. That's a big reason why One Mississippi's second season is such a sweet and pure delight. Dec 19, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen G Just a great series. Tig is an amazing actress and story teller - have always enjoyed her work… I'm so glad her story could be told. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Greg H Overall, I like the show and Tig Nogaro. Season 2 gets more political which I don't appreciate whether it comes from the right or the left. Mostly, this is because it really isn't necessary in most cases. I think Tig just wants to make political statements in the show and therefore finds ways to insert them into the script. A Vietnamese character becomes a love interest for her brother. Of course, this leads to racist remarks which then has to lead to the question of "Who did you vote for?" and criticism of the President at that time. It just isn't necessary and you could just as easily make disparaging comments about politicians on the left but she doesn't. I think this is an unfortunate state of bigotry in the media today. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/01/22 Full Review Audience Member loving this show its a classic Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing show, raising many taboo and unspoken topics in a fine cinematography. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Best show I have seen in years. Bring on Season 3!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The sophomore year for One Mississippi is just as strong as the initial one, and at times even eclipses it. Tig Notaro remains as singular a character as ever (admittedly to the point that the show's other characters can feel bland in comparison), and her show truly captures her unique world view. It's also certainly a different world than in had been in season 1 (prior to the election), and One Mississippi seems poised to confront issues such as bigotry and sexual harassment, and it always does this with tach and aplomb. Despite the dark material, the show still has a resonant feel-good vibe to it, and Tig and Kate's relationship make for one of the sweetest same-sex pairings you're likely to find on American TV. With the show's future being in a grey area due to Louis C.K.'s involvement as a producer, here's hoping that this isn't the last season for this distinct half-hour of subversive comedy.
