7/10
After a while you feel sorry for the actual baby.

First of all this isn't about a baby. They're trying to do way too much with an interesting premise. It started out pretty interesting then it got weird, but not good weird. Just weird. And those poor children (the baby was played by twins). I'm sure there were precautions taken but all that negativity and violence around the baby, yikes. So here are the good things: the idea was very original. There were also a lot of funny scenes-at first. I think the problem started when they tried to get too deep. Motherhood is difficult, women wonder if they are up to the task. There's also sleep deprivation and post partum depression that could have played into this comedy drama. But it turns out to be about childhood trauma? This series could have been a great 4-5 episodes or 1 really good movie.
