A bit of a change of direction in that Piss Off, I Love You isn’t a film, but a TV series…and here we go!
Here we have a “fish out of water” sitcom. The fish being the writer, director, producer, and star Jessie McCormack, as an American presenter brought over to London to present a series highlighting the differences between the UK and the USA.
As well as the cultural differences, Sandy/‘Murica, played by Ms. McCormack, also has to deal with her not being the first choice for presenter, and a rapidly diminishing budget for the show.

The first show is mainly a set up episode, which shows us the cast being assembled amidst the producer’s domestic turmoil, and some less than co-operative subjects for the planned and spontaneous interviews.
A Jolly Good Pilot
I’ll be honest, for me it seems like this is going to be a jolly nice little series. It is very fresh in that there are plenty of references to the ongoing political situation, and the supporting characters are just a wee bit larger than life; enough to be amusing and make the point, but not so much that they become caricatures.
Well… mostly.
In the trailer there is a scene where Sandy is trying to make a Guardsman laugh, except that he’s obviously not a Guard! (Bearskin incorrectly worn; Grenadier Guard jacket but Scot’s Guard bearskin.) Having said that, I may be taking it totally out of context, so I won’t worry too much.
All in all this was an enjoyable, amusing little episode and I look forward to the rest of the series.
Movie Grade: B+
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Water drinkers unite
Run pee is the best app for people who find themselves needing to pee a lot but also not wanting to miss any action. The app gives you the best times to use the bathroom during a movie while also telling you when to leave and which lines to listen for! It not only gives you the time you should go pee, but it also explains to you what is happening during the break. I helped I use this app every time I go to the movies now. My god father recommended this app to 5 years ago and it’s been in my phone ever since! Highly recommended.
