Amandaland review
The first thing you notice about Amandaland is how similar it is to its predecessor. The second thing you notice is that you miss Julia, Liz, Meg and Kevin. And the third, after a while, is that their absence doesn't actually matter that much, as the Motherland spin-off proves itself a just as cruelly delightful as the original.
