Anyone here watch? Curious to know what you thought. For those who haven’t, an episode focuses on a character’s IVF journey.
I thought it was so good and I was happy to see a piece of media show all the nitty gritty details of the process; including the mundane clinical aspects alongside the emotional heartbreaking ones. I cried several times even though I can’t personally relate. It all seemed very accurate too down to the detailed images on the ultrasound display. All I could keep thinking is wow, I’ve never seen this before and I didn’t know the hell women go through. So often a woman’s infertility experience on screen is whittled down to a dialogue-free scene of a doctor giving bad news or something similarly insubstantial, you know? It doesn’t begin to cover the reality and I was really moved. Great performances by all as well as great directing and cinemetography. |

It's the most accurate portrayal of the IVF experience I have seen on television.
As someone who has lived it, it was both hard to watch and made me have so much compassion for myself. When you are living it, you just keep going one foot in front of the other. But watching someone else go through it onscreen made me realize how much I endured. |

I haven't watched this yet but Private Life with Kathryn Hahn and Paul Giamati is also SO spot on with its IVF portrayal. So on the nose in capturing the experience and toll that it was hard to watch, even though I'm on the other side of it now. |

| Season 3 was solid. I’m in the same place in my life and it makes me think twice about IVF. |
