Suburban housewife and mom Tara Gregson sometimes just doesn't seem like herself, and with good reason: She's living with dissociative identity disorder, a condition that causes her to shift between multiple identities without warning. Her loving husband, Max, copes with the situation as best he can, but neither he nor their teenage kids, Kate and Marshall, can be sure who will greet them when they come home: Tara herself, or "T," a flirty teenager; Buck, a beer-swilling Vietnam vet with a violent streak; Alice, a perfect TV mom right out of the 1950s; or other alter egos in this dark comedy created and written by Academy Award winner Diablo Cody ("Juno").

Emily Nussbaum New York Magazine/Vulture The show may be more funny-peculiar than ha-ha, but it is also a real pleasure to watch, owing to the fact that Tara is surrounded by a great ensemble. Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Jethro Nededog The Hollywood Reporter The Season 3 finale did such a great job of wrapping up the series, we can't imagine where it could have gone next in Season 4. Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Emily St. James AV Club The show -- an equal mix of odd comedy and dark psychological drama -- is anything but normal in its template. But also at its base, it's a warm, loving show about a family. Rated: B+ Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media The show succeeds in de-stigmatizing a very misunderstood condition and provides some thoughtful, heartwarming -- albeit mature -- entertainment. Rated: 4/5 Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Jared Canfield Screen Rant For Toni Collette, the transition between personalities is a feat to behold... The supporting cast more than matches her talent. Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Matt Richenthal TV Fanatic Many questions from just one episode, and two seasons' worth of solid storytelling to make me believe we'll get satisfactory answers. Rated: 4.2/5 Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Sam W This was the first show I ever binged on Netflix. It holds a special place in my heart but I'm glad it ended when it did. Some shows overstay their welcome. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/12/22 Full Review Audience Member Great season! Sorry, it got canceled. I would definitely have watched the fourth season. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Gonna miss so much this show :( Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a shame this show got cancelled when it did, I really like the direction it went in Season 3 and it could have easily moved forward. Season 2 was a slight disappointment, but Season 3 really moved every character forward. Toni Collette (and everyone involved) shined. I miss this show.
