Adults

I was not expecting this show to bring the joke-a-second hilarity that it did. Adults somehow manages to balance uproarious laughs with heartfelt warmth. Where has this cast been hiding? The chemistry is electric. Samir and Paul Baker are stand outs. This is a comedy that hits its stride and never looks back, with a group of characters that is easy to love. My biggest complaint is I wish we got longer episodes to really spend time with this group of misfits. If you're looking for a show that captures our moment I highly recommend FX's Adults. It feels like Friends meets Always Sunny. A must watch.

I feel like this show gets gen z humor a little more than just "errrrm phones!" like a lot of shows have been doing for awhile. Made me genuinely laugh out loud a lot. Be forgiving, be nice, at least it's something new! I think in episode 3 it was at peak performance and hilarious - I like all of the actors. The only gripe is they clearly filmed in Canada and are failing to pass it off as New York. That's a tall order for such a recognizable city. I have to hit the character limit but I don't have more to say. Just support more shows that aren't shameless remakes please it's getting dire out here.

A lot of people seem to be saying this show is meant for Gen Z, I'm a millennial and find it funny. Yes it does have some kind of... cringy jokes that are trying a little too hard but they were so infrequent I could forgive them.

I'm a huge fan of recent shows like English Teacher and Overcompensating and this show, while maybe not *quite* as good as those two shows (I gave them 10s) it is certainly filling that void while waiting for season 2s for those shows.

The characters are mostly all unique in their own ways and bring a different type of humor to each scene. If you're on the fence stick it out until at least episode 3, that is my favorite so far and what really solidified the show as a great show for me. Was disappointed when coming to the reviews to see it only had a 6.8 at the time of writing this, don't let that discourage you from trying it out.

Honestly it feels like getting on board a plane right before it takes off. The biggest issue with the show is simply that there isn't more of it, I would've watched for hours on end. It's so rare the find a show as irreverently funny and sentimentally sweet at the same time, but somehow this balances both masterfully. Some of the funniest comedy I've seen in a decade, a real spiritual successor to the kind of heightened, absurdist situational comedy that made the likes of 30 Rock, Always Sunny, and Broad City so successful. It's not trying to be Friends, so don't go in with that expectation, this is its own thing and it's wonderful. Episodes 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 had me on the floor scream laughing, if FX doesn't renew this for a season two there will be hell to pay!!!!!

I can't imagine anyone actually relating to these characters. The writing is so cringe and unrealistic a lot of times.

I don't know anyone in their 20s that talks like any of these people. Token characters like Anton. A random cameo by Julia Fox. It says a lot that celebrities have hyped this show. Just out of touch people thinking that the majority of young people are like this. It all seems less like it's for Gen-Z and more like it's for people who are chronically online. Felt like I was watching a random Netflix show.

Hope that the actors get traction from this show, but I don't see the show getting renewed past 2 seasons tops.
