Scenario
A grieving therapist starts to tell his clients exactly what he thinks
Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge changes to people’s lives – including his own.. Check out our list of renewals and cancellations to see if your favorite show made the cut.. When Brett Goldstein, Jason Segel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they got Harrison Ford to be in the show, Segel said that Goldstein originally wanted a "Harrison Ford type," and was going to audition people similar to Ford. Segel told Goldstein they had to at least bring it to Ford first, thinking he would turn it down immediately, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford had brought the project, generating interest from other notable actors.
Jason Segel is perfectly cast for this script
In the end, Goldstein talked to Ford and sold him on the role. Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince him, but was elated nonetheless.. Featured in WatchMojo: Top 10 Best TV Shows of 2023 (So Far) (2023). And the rest of the show is great, too.
And Jessica is perfect
He has the weird, idiotically confident energy needed for this role. Her humor is just right for the dialogue. This is the new way of situation dramas. No real punch lines, just engaging personalities with a pinch of quirk, and family circumstances that are just a little over the line from normal, but still relatable.
You would lose your license immediately
Of course, Jimmy’s behavior as a therapist is completely absurd. Just impossible. But we allow metaphorical situations in drama. And in this script, we sense a strong purposefulness in the decisions.
Other reviewers, apparently, struggled
We have to give the writers the benefit and try to get the chest. For me, it’s easy and fun.
