I don't understand the awful reviews...it's not the best but it is quirky in the European way....laugh out loud moments, tenderness and a realness of life most shows don't come close to.... I really liked it....quite original....and definitely worth watching.

Its addictive, and also a bit awful. All the husbands are terrible people. The women are mostly vapid and boring, except I want to see where the story with the Yasmin character is heading. I think Elisabeth Shue absolutely saves this show, she's the only one I related to at all. I'd like to see more of her with her mom, Stephanie Powers. Julie Delpy is subtly funny, I had no idea she had comedic chops. I find myself rooting for her husband's demise. The Elle character was painful to watch. Just awful. I got to the point that I couldnt stand her face. If they do another season, I'd like to see Elle fall off a cliff or something.

It seems like they intentionally create drama from these women's life and make up this strong and independent storyline. The story is stretched too long just to go nowhere after 12 eps. I don't feel that I know the characters that well and they are portrayed quite superficially.

Could only get part way through episode 3 before I jumped to the end to see how it ended. All the way through I couldn't help but think about the Seinfeld, "show about nothing" comment.

Maybe it's because I'm a mom in my mid 30s but I found this show incredibly relatable and hilarious. I truly do not understand the low ratings and negative reviews... Maybe people didn't stick around long enough? At first the characters are unlikable but they grow on you. I especially relate to Elizabeth Shue's character.

Anyway, give this show a shot if you like smart, funny, sometimes awkward shows that don't feature picture perfect actors.

This was so, so stupid, pathetic and unmoving. The characters completely unbelievable and unbearable. What a waste of a potentially good foundation and ensemble of characters.

Why are the husbands all such selfish jerks and the women so absolutely pathetic ? The only redeeming value is Elisabeth Shue and her character and Julie Deply when she's not near the husband, otherwise I keep watching to see if it gets better.

As a middle-aged woman, I am painfully embarrassed by this drivel. Thanks so much for perpetuating the cliche of the hysterical female, Delpy. Elizabeth Shue is sort of operating on her own plane and was the only semi-enjoyable aspect of watching this show.

Loved this show, just put it on randomly and watched the whole thing in almost 1 sitting. The writing is very funny and sharp and shows a ton of wit and humanity.

(Btw a bunch of the negative reviews here seem to be because there is some French is spoken in the show and apparently those people get confused when hearing another language. Says it all about the quality of the reviews here, but anyway...)

Ell and Yasmine, especially Yasmine, need to be throat punched. The marriages are toxic, the men are either narcissistic or let the women walk all over them. I can't stop watching though.

I love Julie Delpy and I wish I loved her show but it's awful. The characters are universally unlikeable, particularly the men. It's like she went out of her way to parody the worse aspects of LA society but forgot to leave charm and like ability in the mix. Such a missed opportunity.

The show is different, kinda realistic but not that typical realistic we are used to on this type of comedies. Each character had their likable and unlikable aspects and this I loved. A couple of scenes were too cringy for my tasted, the acting was mostly good, maybe some aspects of the stories needed more development, but hey! It's comedy! Or "dramedy".

Love her accent and how she interacts with other characters.

Very different type of show... and I like it :)

Anyone else feel like feminism just took three giant leaps backward? I was shocked that there were female writers on this and pretty disappointed that this is the portrait they drew of women in America. Shame.

I was pleasently surprised with a show about women in their forties. Im not forty yet, but somehow i could really relate to this. I love the style and script. I love the realness of feeling unhappy, stuck and powerless. "Maybe we're just sad we didn't become who we hoped to become". I love the realness of the pace how long it takes to accept you're unhappy and want to make changes. I'm definitely the target audience for this show😅.

The only thing that didn't make sense to me was the spy thing. What was that about?

Like it or not Woody Allen lives on in shows like this. I love that it's confronting and often awkward. I love that the women don't all look like cookie cutter Instagram models. The French choose character over glamour. The relationships are shockingly age appropriate, and the relationship troubles are real. Maybe exaggerated slightly, perhaps not.

It definitely has a 'Woody Alleness' to it in the best kind of way.

I wanted to adore a show about middle aged women, as it's so annoying that most new shows are made about high school or college aged kids. However, the women all have miserable relationships with their spouses and low self-esteem. It's hard to watch such unlikable characters. Where is the girl power? Where are the strong women sticking up for themselves? Single adults will definitely feel glad about their choices while watching this.

"The Chair" is a better execution on a successful middle aged mom with a complicated life.

Yet another series about shallow, self centered people.

I think those days are over for now.

I'm amazed this show hasn't received more praise. It's a wonderful portrayal of the neurotic behaviour of middle aged people in LA. The characters are all deeply flawed and mostly unlikeable but they are refreshingly honesty and hilariously selfish. Well worth a watch.

First episode was not good but after that it picks up and I started loving the characters and stories.

This show isn't going in any direction except for all over the place. I can't figure out what the point of it is. No one and I mean no one is real or likeable in this show. Women are put in pathetic roles that do not simulate real life. I don't know who was high when writing this but, really try again.

Can't stop watching. Shue is magical. A classic. Things that make you go hmmm. Don't miss out. 10/10 no doubt.

Elisabeth Shue saves this madness. Can't stop watching!

Everything is huggy huggy and sugary sweet and sickly, managed two episodes that's me done. Everything is just way over the top, it just doesn't travel well to us in the uk. I can't see the point of the show, no one is likeable the direction is all over the place. On character has a melt down and is a spy the next day, WHAT !! I think this show will just bomb in the uk.
