Awkward and heartrending moments of We Have To Stop Now are cringe-worthy, but cushioned by comic relief.

A married lesbian couple, both therapists, have coauthored the No. 1 book on sustaining a successful marriage and are now finding themselves on the verge of a divorce and under surveillance by a documentary film crew.

Just to save face, they are forced to take a dose of their own medicine: couple’s therapy. If the premise alone doesn’t say “yikes,” the painfully awkward and heartrending moments of We Have To Stop Now are certainly cringe-worthy, but they’re cushioned by comic relief.

Stars Cathy DeBuono and Jill Bennett are joined by lesbian comic Suzanne Westenhoefer in this all-too-real depiction of a marriage gone awry.
