First episode, but thats because I love musicals.

Unfortunately, the show's title is misleading and makes it sound like a show its not.

The show is incredibly witty and lampshades so many television, movie, and musical tropes by poking fun at them with eccentric musical numbers.

The show also plays on character and gender stereotypes by flipping them over their heads.

But most interestingly, the show can get surprisingly serious by showing the very harmful effects of mental health issues when left untreated. I was surprised how the zany situations at the beginning of the show suddenly became more serious when you realize the main character is in serious need of mental help but chooses to instead deny it and live in the fantastical world she created.

I really recommend people give the show a try. The writing kinda gives me a Community vibe, with some 30 Rock and Cougartown in there.
