Review of The Change

The Change (2023– )
3/10
Disappointingly pedestrian
29 June 2023
Not about the menopause. Not about real people. An unoriginal skit about a bunch of stereotypes in a rural village where the same six people are the only fuctional inhabitants. Very disappointing.

Central character is two dimensional at best. With no little or no emotional development or menopausal symptoms.

There are a few good moments but that only serves to highlight how flat and unoriginal the rest of the show is. Shouty women and sulky men.

It's a waste of a really good cast and a central theme which has been largely underrepresented on tv.

Middle aged women really do hold families together and the menopause can be a hard time which causes struggles, breakdowns and/or fresh beginnings.

This is more like a lazy take on the Vicar of Dibley's world.
