I hadn't heard of it until now! I found this article about it (which seems to contain some minor spoilers from the first episode).

Is it good?

Yeah, it's good. It's funny and sad. The music is epic. The spotify playlist isn't really enjoyable to listen to on its own but it goes great with the show. The music is by https://www.nzonscreen.com/profile/lachlan-anderson

I found it from an RNZ podcast: https://www.rnz.co.nz/podcast/the-detail/2026/turning-kiwi-pain-into-a-punchline-watched-by-a-global-audience

Thanks for the links! I read up on it quite a bit, people seem to like it. I am not sure I can watch it on public transport though, and that's where I do most of my watching 😅
