Brilliantly clever and funny, the show plays on itself, the notion that season one was improvised by the actors and not scripted at all. In the fictional world, Staged is being remade, but Sheen and Tennant aren't well known enough and have to endure read throughs for casting with the likes of Pegg and Frost, Christoph Waltz, Hugh Bonneville, Ken Jeong, Jim Parsons and, ultimately, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Kate Blanchett.
Also cannot help but be a commentary on the depressing effects of lockdowns.
Hilarious e.g. Waller-Bridge: "You wouldn't know a joke if it came on your face."
With Anna Lundberg, Georgia Tennant, Simon Evans, Whoopi Goldberg.
