The eight-part series follows Suzie’s excruciating journey to hold her life together alongside her best friend and manager Naomi (Farzad), as she struggles to keep her career afloat and her marriage to her husband, Cob (Ings), begins to hang by a thread.

Georgi Banks-Davies, a newcomer making a frankly astonishing debut as the director of six of these eight episodes, take no half-measures... the direction is, uniformly, equal parts boldness and thought. “I Hate Suzie” doesn’t immediately rocket Banks-Davies to near the top of every producer’s call list, then they’ve all gone mad.  Rogerebert.com
