The Letdown

2 Seasons 2016 - 2019 NR 30m 7.5

Audrey is determined not to be defined by motherhood. In theory, this seems fairly easy. In practice, her career-focused husband, self-obsessed mother, and fancy-free best friend make it damn-near impossible.

New mother Audrey is having a hard time adjusting to motherhood. Exhausted, struggling to breastfeed, and lacking support from her husband, her selfish and flighty mother, and friends who don't invite her out clubbing, she turns to a new-mothers' group and finds a mixed bag of women and one man who are all in the same boat. They are united by their horror birth stories, sleepless nights, and loss of identity. The Letdown is a humorous yet truthful insight into new parenthood, a must-watch that will make you reminisce and cry at the same time.
