Actually very annoyed the last date we saw him on was with some IDF scumbag.

Love how Connor’s anxieties around things are basically all of us but ramped up to 1000 and vocalised/externalised

Watched the first series and will probs watch the rest at some point, found it sweet and funny.

Is definitely made for a non-autistic gaze though, the way it’s edited and the use of music designed to heighten the awkwardness of interactions, infantilises the people in it a bit

Never heard of it before this week’s Off Menu but want to give it a watch now

Definitely agree with this.

I haven’t watched it but this is the impression I’ve got from all I’ve heard about it. And the show name massively gives me the ick.

I mainly love the show because of how much their family members love and support them.

Haven’t watched season 3 yet, is my girl Dani back? She just wanted a bevvy and to get frisky!

Sex on the Commodore 64

Love how she dismissed that guy in the first season then later was like ‘after great deliberation I’m going to give him another chance as he seems the most DTF’

I dunno, I kinda don’t like them. Every conversation they have is ridiculous. I feel like he’ll often be making a joke or being sarcastic and they take it incredibly the wrong way and act like he’s about to have a meltdown. And then because they’ve set the path that direction Connor thinks the response should flow that way too.

I feel like they probably know more about the nuances of that than us tbf to them!
