La Loi de la plus forte

Just on all fronts; production, acting, writing, etc. This show made me feel things in the absolute best way.

Funny and light and still hitting those deep spots that make you real emotional.

A story about empowerment, hope, relationships, dreaming big and striving for diversity.

I have been a big fan of Michelle Buteau for a minute and in this series she reaches all time highs with her charismatic and powerful character Mavis.

Not only does she play the part so well, she also co-wrote it which makes so much sense since she makes the whole series feel like the most realistic dream-montage.

It better be getting a second season!

I love love lighthearted female lead shows. This show was outstanding and eight episodes wasn't enough.

I don't think I've ever seen Michelle Buteau in anything but now I love her. She plays this role well. I'm like is this how she is in real life because she nailed it.

The writing is so well done! I love that it's not a lot of heavy drama and plenty of funny moments.

I love that her best-friend was a straight gentle, loving and supportive black guy because we don't see that kind friendship enough on tv.

I liked how towards the end we got to see her interacting with her roommate more because I thought it was weird how she moved in and had her friends over often but we rarely saw the roomate.

By next week I'll probably be watching it again because I miss it already!

I've been having a lot of fun so far. I'll give an updated review later on but so far laughing my ass off! L O L! I love Michelle she is a delight. It is so fun keep it coming!!!!! She is such a silly mess!!! I love it!!!!! I love her personality. It's so relatable but at the same time edgy and Fun, it's very refreshing. I love Michelle! This show is great! Also, I love that even when she thought of giving up she kept going thank you it's motivating it's inspiring but it's fun it's not preachy as she said it's the "mo-ment!" I just finished the first episode and loved everything about it down to the music!!!

This show is sweet, funny, inclusive, romantic. Why am I so jaded that I thought things will go off the rails, waiting for a betrayal (I mean besides the obvious one in the first episode). These characters are supportive, committed to growth, and growing. They say the right things during tense moments and mostly make the right decisions. I admit it made me even cry sometimes. It does walk a very very fine line of sappy and sometimes even preachy. I'd have rated it a bit higher if I didn't have a slight fear it can tilt into that territory. Still! I binged all 8 episodes and can't wait for second season. Also, watch Michelle's stand ups!

I had absolutely no expectations for Michelle Buteau's semi-biographical TV comedy debut but it feels genuinely refreshing and has a real charm to it. It frequently does and shows things you rarely see and has a warmth around the premise that I really took to. You rarely see plutonic opposite-gender friends on TV for one and there was a lot of granular observations about being-aimless-in-your-late-thirties that rang some truths despite all the myriad cultural differences. Nice to see some crossover with the drag scene in there as well. Now I don't think it's perfect by any means and there's a lot here that is clunky but the layering is good and I'm up for more.
