Please Like Me...a request? A question? A demand?

Whatever it is - it is nigh on impossible to like this whiny, irritating creep. We can just hope that Josh Thomas is an incredibly good actor because his character is, without reserve, utterly and horrifically obnoxious.

The urge to throw darts at the screen is overwhelming...a comedy it most certainly is not, nearer to travesty than drama.

And...to watch the good-looking Geoffrey kiss this insufferable bow-tied dickhead is enough to make you projectile vomit until the furthest wall in your room is rough-casted with pieces of sweetcorn that you ate 3 weeks ago.

Gruesome...to the nth degree.

The(ir) Blurb...

After breaking up with his girlfriend, Josh comes to the realization that he is homosexual. With the support of his now ex girlfriend Claire, and his best friend and house mate Tom, Josh must help his mother with her battle with depression and the rest of his family embrace his new found lifestyle. All of this becomes a little more complicated when he explores his sexuality with a young and handsome Geoffrey.
