La Loi de la plus forte

I had absolutely no expectations for Michelle Buteau's semi-biographical TV comedy debut but it feels genuinely refreshing and has a real charm to it. It frequently does and shows things you rarely see and has a warmth around the premise that I really took to. You rarely see plutonic opposite-gender friends on TV for one and there was a lot of granular observations about being-aimless-in-your-late-thirties that rang some truths despite all the myriad cultural differences. Nice to see some crossover with the drag scene in there as well. Now I don't think it's perfect by any means and there's a lot here that is clunky but the layering is good and I'm up for more.

This show is sweet, funny, inclusive, romantic. Why am I so jaded that I thought things will go off the rails, waiting for a betrayal (I mean besides the obvious one in the first episode). These characters are supportive, committed to growth, and growing. They say the right things during tense moments and mostly make the right decisions. I admit it made me even cry sometimes. It does walk a very very fine line of sappy and sometimes even preachy. I'd have rated it a bit higher if I didn't have a slight fear it can tilt into that territory. Still! I binged all 8 episodes and can't wait for second season. Also, watch Michelle's stand ups!

I've been having a lot of fun so far. I'll give an updated review later on but so far laughing my ass off! L O L! I love Michelle she is a delight. It is so fun keep it coming!!!!! She is such a silly mess!!! I love it!!!!! I love her personality. It's so relatable but at the same time edgy and Fun, it's very refreshing. I love Michelle! This show is great! Also, I love that even when she thought of giving up she kept going thank you it's motivating it's inspiring but it's fun it's not preachy as she said it's the "mo-ment!" I just finished the first episode and loved everything about it down to the music!!!

If you not of a certain population or display hatred towards certain populations, you will not be desiring to watch this wonderful creation by Michelle Buteau. It definitely appeals to those who are real and have real lives. This show is a masterpiece of realness. Keep it up. Everyone will not like it but there is no need to bashed it. Just move on. I love it. The show features people who make of real life and surround the world daily. If you want to open your mind watch the show to experience difference that exist in the world through this show. I am so glad there is a show which really appeals to the world.

Just on all fronts; production, acting, writing, etc. This show made me feel things in the absolute best way.

Funny and light and still hitting those deep spots that make you real emotional.

A story about empowerment, hope, relationships, dreaming big and striving for diversity.

I have been a big fan of Michelle Buteau for a minute and in this series she reaches all time highs with her charismatic and powerful character Mavis.

Not only does she play the part so well, she also co-wrote it which makes so much sense since she makes the whole series feel like the most realistic dream-montage.

It better be getting a second season!
