Am I Being Unreasonable? is dark, strange comedy
Daisy May Cooper's follow-up to This Country is part Julia Davis, part Motherland - with the odd flash of genius.
Rachel Cooke, The New Statesman, 24th October 2022Victoria Coren Mitchell reviews 'Am I Being Unreasonable?'
Scatty and awkward, the heroine of this funny drama feels curiously familiar...
Victoria Coren Mitchell, The Telegraph, 8th October 2022TV review: Am I Being Unreasonable, Episode 3, BBC One
While all of the cast are very watchable in Am I Being Unreasonable? they might as well rename this series The Lenny Rush Show.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 7th October 2022TV review: Am I Being Unreasonable, Episode 2, BBC One
This is an episode that offers a few answers thanks mainly to an extended flashback, and provides a lot more intrigue. You definitely get the sense that, like the economy, things are very much going to get worse before they get better. If they get better at all.

The co-writer and star who has joined up with Daisy May Cooper for the creepy comedy Am I Being Unreasonable? tells Ellie Harrison about the ups and downs of their friendship, how 'unforgiving' the TV industry is for young mums, and how London drama school Rada 'robbed' her of her acting instinct.
Ellie Harrison, The Independent, 25th September 2022Am I Being Unreasonable? review
Think a ratcheted-up Motherland, twisted through with secrets and lies.
Barbara Ellen, The Observer, 25th September 2022Am I Being Unreasonable? review
It must have seemed well-nigh impossible for Daisy May Cooper to follow up a sleeper hit like This Country, which drew so heavily on her West Country upbringing with her brother Charlie. But she's found fertile new territory with the new BBC comedy-drama-thriller Am I Being Unreasonable?
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 25th September 2022Am I Being Unreasonable?, BBC One review
Daisy May Cooper's new show is promising.
Veronica Lee, The Arts Desk, 24th September 2022Am I Being Unreasonable? review
The new comedy is far from bad television, but it's hard to stay invested in a show that has such little direction.
Emily Baker, i Newspaper, 23rd September 2022Am I Being Unreasonable? review
Daisy May Cooper offers up a tonally distinct yet hit-and-miss series.
