Notes from the Underbelly Trailers

View All

Sensible Andrew and emotive Lauren Stone are happily married. When they decide to embrace the 'joys of parenthood', their lives change and those of her brother Danny and selfish boss (plus her PA), his staff and both their friends sets. And everything is compared to another couple, longer pregnant and sooner parents, Eric and Julie, in 'friendly' rivalry.

Notes from the Underbelly Audience Reviews

Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Develiker terrible... so disappointed.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

janeyjones Please add a minus rating scale for this show because the current ratings system does not come close to indicating the level of the utter awfulness this show attains. To quote Edward Norton's character in Fight Club it feels like a "copy of a copy of a copy of a copy" and so on. The characters are parrots reciting poorly written jokes with seemingly no idea what they are actually saying. Tectonic plates have better comic timing and the blonde chick with glasses has played at least 3 separate manifestations of the same character all with increasing levels of failure. The creators/writers of this show should be brought in front of The Hague and tried for crimes against the art of storytelling. Their sentence: cancellation, oh wait that will probably happen anyway. Their sentence: banishment to writing for reality television.

j-w-bischke I know little about boobs but I do know that they don't fill up until a few hours after delivery, not in the first six or so weeks. I think it is important that even sitcoms are accurate in what they say and teach. Many people will use such misinformation as truth, never checking for accuracy and will simply accept what they see and hear as truth. I think we need to hold writers accountable for what they present and reject the fallacies. Many people will believe anything they read in a newspaper or see on TV but there is no end of foolishness and error presented in the media. People need to be a bit more questioning in what they see and hear. These last eight lines plus the next are just a way to fill up the message so it will post, I said what I had to say in the first two lines.

thewastedsmile The trials of parenthood are familiar grounds for comedy and ABC's Notes From The Underbelly, which follows an expecting couple, tries to tread the same territory, but the only thing remarkable about Notes is how miserably it fails at it. There's no sign of originality to Notes as it wrings its premise dry of any laughs with bland jokes about pregnancy and motherhood repeated endlessly. Notes expects the humor to come from its theme of 'adventures from parenthood', but as it pushes that point with the subtlety of a sledgehammer, the jokes are too obvious to be funny. To its credit, it's not totally unbearable but it's hard to think of a reason to tune in when there's so many better ways to spend your time.

flopcat-1 The series is about a 30-something married couple, Lauren and Andrew, who are expecting their first child and their four friends: Danny and Cooper a single man and woman respectively, and another married couple, Julie and Eric, who are also expecting their first child but are further along in the pregnancy.Aside from exploring the clichés about pregnancy and becoming new parents (and not very well, I might add), the show has nothing to offer. All six characters are superficial, amoral, contemptible people with the possible exception of Andrew. Lauren, who is reluctant to tell her friends of her pregnancy at first, meets Cooper for drinks. Lauren proceeds to throw tequila shots over her shoulder rather than share her good news with Cooper. Finally Cooper catches her in the act, figures out why and shouts accusingly: "You WHORE!! You're pregnant!" The following day, Lauren and Cooper attend Julie's baby shower and Cooper learns that a colleague with whom she had a recent one night stand is married to one of the other attendees. Rather than become appalled from learning this information, she asks Julie how stable her friend's marriage is because she wants to have a relationship with her colleague. Julie replies that the wife is not her friend, just someone from her yoga class (insert sarcasm -- No, she's not Julie's friend, but she's good enough to come to Julie's gift-giving party), and that her marriage is indeed on the rocks, encouraging Cooper to try to break them up. At this point, we turned it off. The characters' morals were incompatible with family life and were offensive. We will not be watching it again.
