‘Shrinking’ builds a wonderful world around a therapist in a spiral

A therapist (Jason Segel) is in a funk after the death of his wife on “Shrinking.” (Apple TV+)

As we eagerly await the sometime-this-spring drop of “Ted Lasso” Season 3, you can get your fix of comedy with heart in the new Apple TV+ series “Shrinking,” which covers a very different world but has the same winning formula of giving us irresistibly quirky characters who deliver quote-worthy dialogue that produces big laughs — and just when we’re enjoying the breezy whimsy of it all, POW! There’s your lump-in-the-throat moment.

Goshdarnit, we just want to give everyone in this whole universe a great, big hug.
