Hilarious and sometimes cringy sitcom from two of the creators of Baroness von Sketch about the challenges and indignities of being a menopausal woman in a society that is youth obsessed and still full of sexism. This show isn't for everyone, but if you enjoyed Baroness von Sketch, you will love Small Achievable Goals. Meredith McNeill and Jennifer Whelan are wonderful, and they have a great supporting cast full of Canadian comic actors. I laughed all through the pilot and can't wait to see the rest of the series. Older women should watch beach use they will relate, and younger women and men should watch for the educational value.

When I heard there was a show about Menopause, I thought, 'brilliant'. Great concept and a great area with a lot of funny and important stuff to draw from. But this isn't a show, it's a cartoon. A bad one. Instead of mining the potential comedy and stories inherent to menopause, the CBC saw fit to just let Meredith do her thing and milk any semblance of a joke until it is devoid of whatever made it funny in the first place.
It's hard to believe this is the same network that gave us Schitt's Creek. What happened? I'm a huge proponent of the CBC. I think a public broadcaster is ESSENTIAL to our identity as Canadians, but I think the CBC needs a shake up, big time. It needs to be gutted, taken down to the studs, and rebuilt with people who know what they're doing and don't keep making the same humourless comedies.

As someone who has started the perimenopausal journey, I was excited to see this show - but instead of feeling liberated at openly discussing the trials and tribulations of menopause, all I found myself watching was the flogging of a dead horse of terrible jokes. I couldnt get through the first episode. But I tried again with the second, because I wanted to like it. Couldnt get through that either.
I honestly dont understand how anyone could possibly find this funny. Do people actually find this funny? Do people consider this feminism? These jokes are not liberating, or even clever - they are stupid.

I liked the first two episodes well enough because of the attention they brought to women trying to perform on the job while experiencing cramps or menopause symptoms. For many women, this can be incredibly difficult, trying to smile and participate professionally, while your insides are spasming or you feel like you are burning up, with sweat dripping down your very flushed face. I did really like these issues being showcased. I did not like the swearing and vulgarity, however, which seemed to increase in episode three, at which point I stopped watching. It seemed like the "humour" was relying too much on crudeness, which I don't find humuorous.
It's a comedy, meant to entertain. Comedy often portrays exaggerated characteristics. I loved how the characters voiced things publicly that many of us feel as we age but do not say to anybody except other women who can relate. This shame has been thrust upon us by a society that historically and currently would rather only celebrate youth and beauty. It allows us to be seen while aging and while working. It covers several important subjects (aging, women's health, sexism) in a lighthearted and relatable way and let's women be seen as they age but tackles the subject in a very funny way, almost farcical. I think the other two reviews I read missed this. This show is for women and about women, period. We get the message. I am looking forward to more. I really enjoyed the first episode.
