How Single Drunk Female Is Bringing a Never-Before-Seen Perspective to Alcoholism
There's no one way to portray alcoholism.as 20-something alcoholic Samantha, the series explores what happens when you publicly hit rock bottom and are forced to move home.
Through Alcoholics Anonymous, Samantha is tasked with looking at her life and her loved ones, including widowed mom Carol , in a new light. And, as Black-D'Elia explained to E! News in an exclusive interview, this recovery story is unlike any we've seen before. "I think that we don't often see stories of recovery told from a younger female perspective," she shared. "And I think that it can affect anybody at any age at any time. And, you know, this is very specific toThough this is "a really specific story," per Black-D'Elia, Single Drunk Female is not just about getting sober."It's a show about kind of, like, the continual reinvention of yourself," she added.
As for their characters' dynamic—Samantha not-so-lovingly refers to Carol as her "smother" in the trailer—the actresses highlighted that at the start of the series, a shared loss has put a strain on the mother-daughter duo's relationship. "Sam's father died," Sheedy said of the important backstory. "I, Carol, was the person who was there taking care of him because she was off in New York, you know, drinking her way through, whatever...She just wasn't there."
