"I think he would have. said exactly what I talked about it a little bit earlier," Hannah says of George's purpose in life. "He wants to be a civil engineer or a architect who describes making building buildings and airfields and cities", she adds. "That's how he conceptualizes himself." The film, which premieres on Thursday night at 9 p.m., is based on the novel by Jonathan Safran Foer that was turned into an HBO series last year.

In our final episode of Season 1 we discuss the life and trials of George Bailey and attempt to answer the question of whether "Wonderful" is a fair assessment. We debate whether George's symptoms are primarily based in depression or anxiety as well as debate the co-morbidity of depression, anxiety, and trauma. We detail the treatments available to help George as he faces his existential crisis. Tune in to find out more and Happy Holidays to all!
