Somebody Somewhere (TV 2022): Breakout hit for Bridget Everett. Sitcom about a woman in a midlife crisis who returns home to Manhattan, Kansas. Show doesn't make the residents there the butt of the jokes. Instead, it's sweet, sensitive, and real. And sometimes funny, too. B+
Interesting comparison between Somebody Somewhere and Everything Everywhere All at Once. Both feature women having a midlife crisis. But the latter movie takes her on a wild ride through the multiverse. In the former TV series, it's an episode of quiet desperation in Manhattan, Kansas.
