Wellmania: Season One
April 13, 2023 9:44 AM - Season 1 (Full Season) - Subscribe
Liv (Celeste Barber) is an Australian food writer who's about to hit it big in the US. All she needs is to replace her lost green card. And all she needs to do that is pass a physical. And then things get difficult.
"Even if Wellmania doesn’t live up to its own high-concept premise, it is still incredibly watchable ... And Barber is fantastically charismatic, delivering Liv’s taboo-baiting lines with a perfect balance of drollness and enthusiasm." -- Rachel Aroesti, The Guardian
"Wellmania is not the best comedy of the year, but it could have been. ... As it is, it makes for a simple watch to pass the time, that is, if you can stand its obnoxious main character." -- Nelson Acosta, Fiction Horizon
"Ultimately, what could have been a pretty one-note jab at the pretensions and charlatans of wellness culture turns into something more holistic." -- Mel Campbell, ScreenHub
Wellmania is streaming on Netflix in the US.

Good fun. It looks like they're angling for more seasons, and I'll be happy if they get them.
