The TVI Take
A Los Angeles patriarch comes out as transgender to his family. The first season is exceptional — Jill Soloway's direction and Jeffrey Tambor's performance are both remarkable.
Educational about gender identity, transition, and Jewish family dynamics. Formally innovative and emotionally generous.
