Getting On is genuinely funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. It's currently available in Australia on Foxtel Now and HBO Max, and in the US on HBO Max Amazon Channel and YouTube TV, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. A 6/10 rating means the audience agrees.
Set in a geriatric extended care wing of a down-at-the-heels hospital, Getting On follows put-upon nurses, anxious doctors and administrators as they struggle with the darkly comic, brutally honest and quietly compassionate realities of caring for the elderly. Laurie Metcalf and Alex Borstein lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 3 seasons (2013–2015), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.
Ideal for when you want something light without wanting something stupid. Getting On respects its audience — rarer than it should be.
