This is such a fun show and both leads (Mae Whitman and Carlos Valdes) are terrific...Especially together. The music is a surprisingly beneficial addition to the premise of the show - characters stuck in their own minds. There are many comedic moments that could be overly cheesy if the cast wasn't spot-on. As it is, I wouldn't be disappointed if plot and musical numbers were given more intricacies and weight in the next season, but regardless, I believe this show will find itself beloved by many if given the chance. It is the perfect cocktail of funny characters, a romance to root for and backstory in which to be interested. The writers need to lean into their two leads - their chemistry as well as their ability to handle serious and comedic acting. Also, just keep sprinkling in the randomness. Freaking loved the rats scene! It was terrible yet hilarious and Mae Whitman and Carlos Valdes made it work.

Cards on the table. I would happily watch Mae Whitman reading tax returns so I may be a little biased in welcoming this addition to the schedule. Musical rom-coms are, of course, the Marmite of showbiz and this is obviously reflected in the reviews to date. But if you're a fan, you certainly won't be disappointed by the glorious mix of sense and sensibility. There are certainly plenty of points of recognition with the array of competing inner voices that surround those first glimmers of love. As with many musical numbers the words are rather more important than the tunes but, to my mind, that increases the value, especially when performed with such clarity by Whitman and Valdes.

This is a cute show! It's very relatable. Who doesn't want to shut up the voices in their head! The leads are great together. But I'd have to say my favorite casting is Scott Porter. He always place the all american nice guy so this is a fun role for him and he does it well! Mae Whitman is fantastic as always and this is perfect for her everyday quirky girl. Some of the music is eh or distracting but some is good and adds to the show.

Im excited to learn more about these two and the voices in their heads

The 90s nostalgia is also great. Feels like it's everywhere now but they do it real well.

Seriously, I don't get how anyone can watch this show and not end up loving it. The leads are adorable together, but they're also incredibly screwed up by past traumas that make it hard to drown out the voices in their heads. This isn't a sappy love story; it's a story about two people who want each other so much, but their past keeps holding them back from embracing the future. It paints a realistic picture of dating and falling in love, all while singing upbeat songs with lyrics that are actually pretty dark.

The talent of everyone in this show is off the charts. I find myself even enjoying the a-hole characters because they're SO GOOD. The writing is some of the best I have seen in a long time. And the late-90s cringe fashion is a 10/10. 😂

Give this show a chance. You won't be disappointed!

It's one of those series that while I am watching, I get up, make myself something to eat, do the dishes,, while I am listening to what is going on, and I know I am not missing something important.

The story is sweet, the acting is good, there are certainly some very funny scenes, but the feeling is wrong. I guess that the songs are kind of mediocre, and the voices in their heads don't add much to the plot

Where is New York? The outdoor scenes are so few and it could be anywhere in the world. It is 1999 but it feels like its 1995. Where are the mobile phones? Where is the frenzy of entering a new millennium? The worry that it could be the end of the world? That the computers could crash?

Also I have some doubt about the clothing choices.

I noticed that the rating is higher amongst US users, than the rest of us.
