Adults

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.

Honestly it feels like getting on board a plane right before it takes off. The biggest issue with the show is simply that there isn't more of it, I would've watched for hours on end. It's so rare the find a show as irreverently funny and sentimentally sweet at the same time, but somehow this balances both masterfully. Some of the funniest comedy I've seen in a decade, a real spiritual successor to the kind of heightened, absurdist situational comedy that made the likes of 30 Rock, Always Sunny, and Broad City so successful. It's not trying to be Friends, so don't go in with that expectation, this is its own thing and it's wonderful. Episodes 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 had me on the floor scream laughing, if FX doesn't renew this for a season two there will be hell to pay!!!!!

This show is FUN. It's for the gen z twenty-something's and the hate for it feels really forced. The hate for this show must be coming from a place of not relating to the new generation. Adults is a modern raunchy friend-group comedy that's such an easy and enjoyable watch. It's about figuring it out and having your found family there backing you up. I was laughing out loud (which is rare for me.) The characters aren't necessarily good people or the best friends to each other but their flaws/antics are relatable and make for a funny group dynamic. I really hope this does not become a victim of first season cancellation.

I can't imagine anyone actually relating to these characters. The writing is so cringe and unrealistic a lot of times.

I don't know anyone in their 20s that talks like any of these people. Token characters like Anton. A random cameo by Julia Fox. It says a lot that celebrities have hyped this show. Just out of touch people thinking that the majority of young people are like this. It all seems less like it's for Gen-Z and more like it's for people who are chronically online. Felt like I was watching a random Netflix show.

Hope that the actors get traction from this show, but I don't see the show getting renewed past 2 seasons tops.

A lot of people seem to be saying this show is meant for Gen Z, I'm a millennial and find it funny. Yes it does have some kind of... cringy jokes that are trying a little too hard but they were so infrequent I could forgive them.

I'm a huge fan of recent shows like English Teacher and Overcompensating and this show, while maybe not *quite* as good as those two shows (I gave them 10s) it is certainly filling that void while waiting for season 2s for those shows.

The characters are mostly all unique in their own ways and bring a different type of humor to each scene. If you're on the fence stick it out until at least episode 3, that is my favorite so far and what really solidified the show as a great show for me. Was disappointed when coming to the reviews to see it only had a 6.8 at the time of writing this, don't let that discourage you from trying it out.
