Love Life

I like rom com type shows and I love Anna Kendrick, so I enjoyed this show quite a bit. I enjoyed the different angle of this show where each episode is a relationship.

Anna excels as Darby in this show. I especially love the interactions between her and her bestie, Sarah. Great acting on both ladies part.

Each episode had me curious as to what was coming next.

Not sure whats with the hate from the Debbie downers. It had happy moments, sad moments, and moments that make you laugh. It's a romance type story, you just have to take it for what it is.

My only complaint is the end. I wish we'd see more of her and her person!

I really liked the concept of this. As a woman who dated in New York for over a decade until I found the right person (in LA), there are definitely a multitude of different situations and types of guys this could have covered to show how hard dating in NY can be. The first few episodes were great, but once it strayed from the original concept it just became a different slightly less interesting show. Where are all the terrible Tinder dates, or guy who turns out to be married, etc. So many missed story ops. On a side note Anna Kendrick's clothing in this is beautiful, but there's no way that character could afford most of it.

I am not much of a TV series person, I usually prefer movies but I decided to give this one a shot since Anna Kendrick is one of my favourite actresses out there. I saw the first episode and I thought it was okay, nothing particularly exciting, just a chill rom com but right now I am absolutely hooked. After watching every episode so far I can confidently say that this is a great TV show with great acting and plot. I am not biased, when an actor/actress I love does a bad job I'll be the first to acknowledge it so believe me when I say that Anna Kendrick shines with a hilarious yet partially heart breaking performance and she's a reason alone to watch this. The script is also very interesting with many ups and downs (emotionally speaking) and I am thrilled every time an episode comes out. If you are looking for something relaxing and entertaining to watch this show is for you. If you want something more exciting then you might not be particularly thrilled about this but I think it's still worth watching. Definitely recommended.

"Love Life" the new romance anthology from "HBO Max" is a little series that's entertaining as it tries to capture the present day journey and trials of love and life of one Darby(the good Anna Kendrick) a "NYC" millennial who as a single girl in the big city has fun as she explores the bedroom with different loves, as her relationships are fun yet messy. Really the series is a take on the highs and lows of life and love. Darby and her friends are still trying to figure out life and dreams, as Darby has somewhat had the cards stacked against her after being a child of divorced parents. She also struggles in the job world often changing jobs as much as boyfriends. Each episode moves forward following a new love in the life of Darby, as always love hurts as it's complex and tough. Still despite the relationship drama the series is fun, soul searching and entertaining.

The pacing is off and there's some cringy jokes and storylines, but Anna Kendrick and her character's romantic journey provides a solid but flawed television series.
