I feel the people giving bad reviews, watched this series with wrong expectations, expecting it to be another horror series.
The "horror" of this series is how true it rings, and how close it hits to home.
This series explores death and mortality, and our relation to it, in a very genuine and honest way. It really pulls on your heart strings, thanks to the excellent acting. You get a glimpse in to their every day lives, and even though they are terminally ill, it doesn't stop them from living in the moment. That being said, death is never far away, and you're reminded that at any time another chair might be empty and The Midnight Club.

There's a lot of funny moments in this series (which easily could have been a movie, given the short length of the episodes), and I see a lot of Mr. Bean in the acting here. However, I feel it would be much better if they simply had Mr. Bean be the main character. That character is perfect for this role. But what we ended up with is kind of like Mr. Bean, but not quite. All in all though, not a bad series.
