Michael: Tuesdays and Thursdays

2011 · 1 season

A gentle, dry sitcom about therapy that charms with awkward neuroses and low-key absurdity rather than big laughs.

Tagline: Dysfunctional, neurotic and co-dependent. Then there's his patient.
Overview: Michael, a neurotic young man, sees his therapist David twice a week. David views Michael as an ideal guinea pig for the experimental psychiatric techniques he hopes will turn him into a bestselling pop psychology writer.
How it feels: Light, satirical, whimsical and warm. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Identity, obsession, friendship, isolation
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
