AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
eatcrowepls I found this show to be incredibly boring with unlikable characters. The psychiatrist is a decent actor at least but Michael is not a good actor and also just a terrible character to try to root for or care about. The stories were poorly written and unfunny. Just nothing I can recommend about this show at all.
Some Dude Depression is not funny. Shows about depression are even less funny.Some people must get some kind of sick, vicarious thrill out of watching somebody's life go down the toilet. I'm not one of them. This turkey has apparently managed to run for 2 seasons (where?). I was ready to pull the plug after 15 minutes, but I didn't -- because I foolishly thought that it must have some redeeming value since it did last for 2 seasons.I was wrong.And if the depressing story isn't bad enough to make you want to shoot yourself, it presents us with a cast of cartoon-like stereotypical characters to fill out the other roles.Don't watch this -- you deserve better.
EilisNiGhliasain I want to add that "Michael Every Day" is just as good as "Tuesdays & Thursdays." As a Canadian cultural nationalist, it is gratifying to see such fine CanCon in 2017.Don McKellar has contributed so much to Canadian culture. I hope Canadians have paid attention to his work; his lovely films "Highway 61" and "Last Night" and CBC-TV's "Twitch City" - where he had great chemistry with actress Molly Parker - should be on everyone's bucket list. Tight writing and great acting is also part of Michael, Tuesdays and Thursdays. It was nice to see Ed Asner on television again and see such fine talent on the small screen.I am re-watching the series on the CBC website and loving it. Why it would ever be cancelled so quickly is a mystery to me. And why do we spend so much time watching south of the border shows when we have such good ones like this one at home.It is March, 2017 now. And I just want to add that I am disappointed that this series was not nominated for CSAwards 2017. Why not? Despite that, I hope the series continues. It's so good!
chris-chasely Really well done. A show full of reality without the unnecessary entertainment gimmicks. In Michael one gets to see the suffering and how he tries to overcome his fears with the help of his doctor. The doctor-patient relationship is wonderful and so real. I found the cast brought on that reality. From Michael, to Dr. Storper and Claire and all the way to Mr. Renn acting with so much ease on his scooter-that couldn't have been easy! This cast must have been chosen with everything in mind. The perfect chemistry between Michael and Clair, the trick played by Dr. Storper were the highlights. Direction by Don Mckellar, our Canadian hero, is second to none. Honestly, he has done an amazing job to bring the cast together. An excellent, excellent production which I hope will continue like the US soaps. This is what we need to watch not the reality dance shows!
