Viewers praised the new comedy
Another Netflix user compared the series to two other hugely successful shows, writing: "Wow, Speeding through season one of #HardCell on @netflix. #CatherineTate has created a work of television comedy up there with The Office and Utopia. Great job!"
Other fans called for Netflix to commission another season, with one person writing: "I watched all of #HardCell in two days. I LOVED IT! I need more please!" while another agreed, adding: "Just finished Hard Cell, and it was brilliant!!! Really amazing series. I hope they'll be a second."
Fans called for a second season
The former Doctor Who actress recently spoke to RadioTimes.com about what makes the show different from her other projects. "The process is kind of completely the same, only my stuff was all shot in front of a studio audience and obviously this isn't," she explained. "And so what I don't have is the direct connection with the audience straight there."
"I have to say, working with Netflix creatively was a fantastic experience," she added.
Hard Cell is available to stream on Netflix.
