I'm not sure who would consider this show a comedy. I even enjoy dark comedy but this show never made me even have a "sensible chuckle" or slightest grin. It is a drama not a comedy and not even a dramedy (which most of the times are dramas with 1 or 2 funny moments amidst all the pain and stress) so that misclassification made it hard for me to enjoy the show since my wife and I went into it thinking it would be funny.
I'd rate it higher as a drama but even then it doesn't work for me. I'm was never interested in the sad sack characters or their interactions. Others who enjoy "maelstroms of pain" may disagree and really love this work but it isn't for me.
