Modern Love

I went into this with a big old chip on my shoulder. I hate the "Love Actually" contrived, everyone is connected in some way storyline. I find it painful. But I had gotten tired of streaming dark British crime dramas and gave it a shot. I almost turned it off in the first ten minutes. Really? They are going to start the series with a lot of actors we've never seen. And then the magic happened. It stopped seeming contrived and became lovely. The characters were good people and I wanted them to be happy. No Hallmark moronic misunderstandings. It's not all hearts and flowers, and I have only seen two episodes, but it made me emotional and happy in a way TV seldom does. 30 minutes is too short............and just right.

Right amount of warmth this fall needs. Appreciate every perspective of love!

Stuck in bed sick and have binge watched the whole season. I cried, I laughed, I felt all the things. Fully recommend.

I watched the first episode and cried and felt wonderful when it was over. I believe that is the definition of a "feel-good" story. I watched the second one and now I want to take some time and think about what I've seen and how great the performances are and I want to call my adult daughters and tell them about it and have them watch so we can fan-girl about it. I want to curl up on a cozy couch with a fluffy blanket and cup of tea and box of tissues on a cold afternoon and watch the next episode. It's unexpected, it doesn't follow the path you expect and best of all, it's a master class in subtle, nuanced acting.

Cute anthology series with a great cast and solid writing. Black Mirror mind effs you after each episode, but this show will give you a heart boner.
