Adultos

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.

ADULTS is an easygoing comedy that plays charitably with Gen Z tropes without having to resort to generational barb slinging. It's full of cute and genuine moments but never forgets that it's a comedy at heart with a youthful sort of optimism that lingers throughout each episode. There's plenty of laughs and a nice assortment of personalities to enjoy (what a great cast).

There's also only 8 episodes out for this first drop, and for me, well, it was over too soon (a rewatch is in my future). So, in conclusion, I definitely wouldn't complain if it got a second season, and I really hope it does.

Didn't expect to fall so hard for Adults, but here we are. This FX comedy about five twenty-somethings sharing a house in Queens is the most I've laughed-and cringed-in ages. It captures the messiness of early adulthood with a blend of absurd humor and genuine emotion. The cast-Malik Elassal, Lucy Freyer, Jack Innanen, Amita Rao, and Owen Thiele-bring their characters to life with performances that are both hilarious and deeply relatable. The show hits its stride in Episode 6, "Roast Chicken," where a dinner party spirals into chaos, featuring Charlie Cox's unforgettable guest appearance. Despite its zany moments, Adults doesn't shy away from the real struggles of growing up, making it a standout in the coming-of-age genre. It's a must-watch for anyone navigating the wild ride of adulthood.

Can streaming services give new shows more than eight 20-30 minute episodes for gods sake?! Give shows the opportunity to be great! Sitcoms were not meant to be this short they should have 20-25 episodes like they used to. Adults does a lot with the little time it was given and I hope it doesn't get cancelled before it can really get going. I want more! The characters are fun and engaging, acting is great, it didn't try too hard with the gen z humor to the point of being cringe, and it has a lot of potential that I would be disappointed to see go to waste just because streaming services are stupid. Give us a second season with more episodes PLEASE.

I think so many sitcoms are pitched now as being "like Friends for Gen Z" but it's hard to find a show that actually understands what made Friends so captivating. I found Adults to be laugh out loud funny and it truly felt like it was written by people in their 20s who understand what it's like to be entering adulthood in this decade. Most importantly, I think it really captured friendships and the kind of odd groups you often find yourself in right out of college. I think this show will really find its footing in the next seasons and we'll begin to feel really attached to the characters. I put it on expecting to just watch a few episodes but I ended up binging the whole thing.
