Mae Martin stars as herself in Netflix’s new series Feel Good as a Canadian comedian living in London, navigating a relationship with her new girlfriend, George and dealing with sobriety.
Feel Good stars Mae Martin as Mae, a rising talent on the stand-up circuit and recovering addict whose addictive behaviours and intense romanticism dominate every single part of her life. When she meets pragmatic – but so far heterosexual – George (Charlotte Ritchie) she’s smitten, and much to her surprise George feels the same. They embark on an intoxicating romance as Mae juggles relationships with her parents, fellow addicts in a drugs support group, her colleagues at the local stand up club, and most importantly tries to transform her relationship with George from an addictive one to a healthy one.
But the real question is can Mae replace a toxic addiction to love with love itself. Feel Good is a deeply personal, dark but hilarious story about two young people navigating the modern-day landscape of love, addiction, and sexuality – and trying to form a meaningful and lasting connection.
Starring Mae Martin as “Mae”, Charlotte Ritchie as “George”, Lisa Kudrow as Mae’s mom “Linda”, Adrian Lukis as Mae’s dad “Malcolm”, and Sophie Thompson as “Maggie”.
Feel Good premieres March 19th on Netflix.
