Love Life

This series follows the chronological love life of a 20-something in NYC, played by Anna Kendrick, with each episode focusing on a different relationship. It's entertaining enough, and luckily the episodes aren't too long (30 mins) but honestly it's nothing to write home about. It doesn't say anything particularly unique or thought-provoking about love, nor is it particularly funny. Though I've liked Anna Kendrick in other productions, personally she doesn't do it for me here. For a show that's entirely centered on its main character, the main character is kinda bland and a little annoying.

To be honest, coming into this I didn't realise it is such a great show. Maybe because of the cliche name or the old school poster art. I thought it was gonna be one of those cheesy rom-com.

But it's not. It's so much more than that. It captures the raw emotions you have at every age. The ups and downs of any relationship. Overall it feels very human and genuine. I especially like the narrator. She always says something so spot on, so inspirational.

I love that the characters grow. They are multi-dimensional. They fall and pick themselves up. Along the way, I really feel the connection with most of the characters. I also like how stories take turns in unexpected ways, exactly like real life.

No matter who you are. You will find a bit of yourself in Darby. You will laugh, cry and get butterflies with her. I want a season 2!!!

I'm a bit of sucker for romantic tales - and decided to watch just one episode. Like all REALLY good shows - I was a gonner - and ended up binge watching both seasons over the next few days ... Season 1 with Darby, and then Season 2 with Marcus.

Both seasons are really really good. Both leads and supporting casts are really good.

It's really a perfect ying yang - and at the end of both seasons you'll be sitting there with a smile on your face. Perfectly content. And with a deeper knowing that we are all imperfect, all better for having others to share our lives with ... and that life is indeed something you have to work at.

"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.

Give this one star or ten stars, it does not matter. But if you have the patience to just watch, and you are a real person, this has something. Thank you for making this
