This show was a very unexpected pleasure to watch, and it touched me deeply.

But maybe I'm not the usual viewer. I have struggled in my life with some (very) mild Asberger's tendencies that while nowhere near severe enough to land me with a clinical diagnosis, have made my life kind of hard at times and left me none the less feeling quite separated from "normal" people.

'Atypical' completely stunned me in a way that I strongly identified with. It brought many smiles to my face as it's quite witty throughout. But it also shows that although different, people with ASD do have hearts, and are very much human and deserve to be understood for who they are.

So thanks to the makers of this show. It has had a profound and personal impact on me. I really hope we see another season next year!
