Lisa Kudrow stars in a Netflix comedy-drama that has received a flawless score on Rotten Tomatoes, although it’s possible you might not be familiar with it.
The beloved sitcom actress has been part of various film and television projects since Friends concluded its decade-long run in 2004.
From lending her voice to a TV executive owl in Netflix’s Bojack Horseman to making an appearance in the fantasy-comedy series The Good Place, I particularly enjoy seeing Kudrow on screen.
Recently, Kudrow’s newest series, No Good Deed, premiered on Netflix on December 12.
This eight-episode series, directed by Dead To Me’s Liz Feldman, follows three families competing to purchase the same 1920s Spanish-style villa, believing it will solve all their issues.
However, some fans may have overlooked one of Kudrow’s most acclaimed shows.
The 61-year-old was featured in a British drama series that captivated audiences and achieved a perfect 100 percent rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics.
The series, called Feel Good, premiered in 2020 and spanned two intense seasons.
You can view the trailer below.
Feel Good was created by non-binary comedian Mae Martin and writer Joe Hampson, with Martin portraying a fictionalized version of themselves.
Set in London, the narrative follows Martin as they manage their comedy career, navigate a new relationship, and confront the challenges of addiction and sobriety.
Kudrow takes on the role of Martin’s mother, Linda, while Charlotte Ritchie, known for her role in You, plays Martin’s girlfriend, George.
For the first season, Rotten Tomatoes’ critics consensus stated: “An intimate portrait of addiction and love, Feel Good is at once sweetly charming, uncomfortably complicated, and completely worth falling for.”
The second season also received high praise, with a review noting: “Feel Good’s second season is at once sharp and soft, a bittersweet examination of love and life that will leave viewers wanting more from Mae Martin ASAP.”
Fans described the series as ‘refreshingly funny,’ with one viewer expressing: “I didn’t want this show to end.”
Another fan summarized: “A cleverly and beautifully written series. Funny, sad, stressful and captivating all at the same time.”
Yet another viewer commented: “Such an honest, hilarious, and yet painfully real depiction of trauma, PTSD, addiction, abuse, love, and relationships.”
“Mae Martin has truly created a masterpiece with this series.”
Feel Good’s two seasons can be streamed now on Netflix.
