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.

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.

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!!!

Yogi was the best character and deserves his own spin off show!

The main character wasn't super likeable but I guess that was the point. Not everyone is perfect and we have all either been that guy or dated that guy. It was an easy watch, some funny moments. The sister was great.

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.
