La vida de Beth (Amy Schumer) se ve muy bien a simple vista, especialmente para todas las personas con las que creció; se gana la vida como distribuidora de vinos, tiene una relación a largo plazo con un chico atractivo y exitoso, y vive en Manhattan. Pero cuando un incidente repentino obliga a Beth a involucrarse con su pasado, su vida cambia para siempre.

It fails to achieve the balance between comedy and drama, too weak in character descriptions and too boring in family drama. It gives the impression that Amy Schumer wants to do something more relevant than "Trainwreck" (2015) and stays with something, simply, more soporific and certainly much less fresh than "Somebody somewhere" (2022), with which it has some points in common.
The season has a slow start, but by episode 3 it got better. I can relate to a lot of this being single and 40s. She's quirky and I always like her work, it's quirky too. It's pretty funny and also realistic. As she is on her journey to find what will make her happy, you just keep rooting for her. I like it. The first 2 episodes.......not so much, but by episode 3 I liked it more. Now I'll be sad when the season ends.
Life & Beth is extremely dark. You'll love it. But it's extremely grounded in pathos and a hatred of self, hatred of your current life, and hatred of where you're from. It's sort of an "everyone sucks" comedy series.
I was about to gag myself with a spoon about this show and about Amy Schumer but since she's playing a character and she's bonafide hilarious and not doing awful skits like her other show, and there's a good supporting cast, I think this'll be that self-aware, everyone's stupid, observational funny.
Definitively started off slow but got better as it progressed .
