The latest hit on BBC has finally arrived and viewers are hooked. After months of complaints about the lack of compelling shows on TV, fans were delighted to discover We Might Regret This. This comedy-drama challenges stereotypes surrounding disability and has been described as "refreshing" by those who have already binged on it.
The six-part series centers around Freya, a Canadian artist in her thirties who is also tetraplegic. She moves to London to be with her new boyfriend, Abe, a lawyer in his fifties. The chemistry between the two is electric, and viewers couldn't get enough. TV critic Scott Bryan even declared, "God, it's good!" on social media.
The representation of disability in the series struck a chord with many viewers. One Twitter user, @Legaliz39134622, agreed with the sentiment, saying, "Yeah, and it's been a while." Another user, @artofpolis, expressed their excitement about the show and the representation it brings, saying, "You have no idea how long I waited for a story like that. Jessie Mei Li promoting the new series she's in #WeMightRegretThis with disability representation and romance."
The creators of the show, Kyla and Jim O'Hendraich, have been vocal about the importance of disability representation in media. In an interview, Kyla stated that most depictions of disability are made by non-disabled people, and often focus on tragedy or inspiration. She hopes that their show can contribute to changing the narrative and redefine what it means to be disabled.
The series has also been praised for its comedic elements. One Twitter user, @GillLoomesQuinn, said, "This bit got me right in the funny bone. So refreshingly novel to see my 'world' reflected in comedy. Great job all involved." The show follows Freya and Abe's relationship as they navigate their new life together, including the challenges of living with a disability. To make things more interesting, Freya's best friend Jo becomes their personal assistant, leading to some hilarious moments.
We Might Regret This also features talented actors such as Sally Phillips and Ed Bluemel. The BBC synopsis describes the show as a story about a new relationship, a blended family, and a strong female friendship. With its unique storyline and diverse cast, it's no wonder the series has been a hit with viewers.
