That's fair - I more meant in the sense that the characters and their behavior/reactions are realistic to their personalities. Jimmy would've had Pauls practice shut down many times over for sure haha.

To comment on the articles - they seem 'butthurt' for lack of a better term. I definitely don't enjoy the show for its portrayal of therapy. I genuinely enjoy the characters and the psychology today article sure does a good job of taking the fun out of it. It's a fictional tv show, not a documentary on therapy and dealing with loss.

Last edit: I've been to therapy, it would make a ####ty tv show lol
