What I liked

Kerri’s comic timing, the story-line and the message!

What I didn't like

More shows please!!!

My overall impression

Kerri’s comedic genius is truly uplifting here. Her hilarious one-liners will catch you off guard and leave you giggling uncontrollably in the most random places and at the most unexpected things, filling you with joy! The show’s premise is pure inspiration: a newly divorced woman gets white-girl-wasted at her niece’s wedding, blacks out, and suddenly she’s confronting all the feelings she’s been suppressing, leading to a journey of self-discovery. It’s ridiculously relatable – who hasn’t suppressed some feelings, am I right? And with a dream sequence featuring Patrick Swayze, followed by ghost Patrick Swayze, you’ll be hooked and inspired to face your own challenges!
