This Way Up

Aisling Bea, who wrote and starred in this show, is undeniably the funniest person in every room she’s in. She’s quick, charming, and a crackling good time.

So is her alter ego here, Aine, and the genius of the show is its exploration of what the funniest person you know is trying to cover up. It deals so deftly with depression and other deeper topics while somehow also staying light and sharp.
