    I need other 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!

    Hard to dislike, hard to call it actually good

    I'm so on the fence, I enjoyed the show which is really all you can ask for from a Netflix show these days but this one was just so over the top trying to include every thing and everyone. At one point it just felt forced. The cast overall was great even though none of them were actually good actors, least of all the main actress (which I think is one of the prettiest women ever and look wise as amazing for the part) but I mean... Sometimes I actually didn't know she was being ironic or sincere because her acting was so bad. Her energy made up for it though. Story wise it was good, the humor and the jokes often good but too flat at times.

    This is a niche treasure.

    If you not of a certain population or display hatred towards certain populations, you will not be desiring to watch this wonderful creation by Michelle Buteau. It definitely appeals to those who are real and have real lives. This show is a masterpiece of realness. Keep it up. Everyone will not like it but there is no need to bashed it. Just move on. I love it. The show features people who make of real life and surround the world daily. If you want to open your mind watch the show to experience difference that exist in the world through this show. I am so glad there is a show which really appeals to the world.

    Totally Unexpected!

    I avoided this for a couple days, because I haven't been a fan of Michelle Bateaux's standup or supporting roles (Always Be My Maybe). I knew I was gonna watch this eventually, but I never thought I'd binge it in an afternoon! I rated this an 8 up until the literal last minute of the show, which made me cry, then change the rating to a 10.

    This is the perfect vehicle for her! I love everything about it: the direction, comedy, acting, pacing, editing, drama, co-stars, story... I cannot even imagine this not getting renewed, because I *need* to know what happens to this character and her group of friends!

    The only thing that bothered me were the voice cut-ins that were edited in to cover up something they wanted to change in the original joke or script. It was always done when her back was turned, so it was plausible that she said it, but the change in "air" around the sound was obvious and distracting. Other than that, no complaints!

    WAIT THIS IS SUCH A GOOD SHOW?!

    I've never actually cared enough to write a review for something but this show was so beautifully done. I cried, I lol'd, and I said "as you should" way too many times. If your feelings are valid could be a show this would be it. So many relatable moments to make it feel real and the self aware characters are giving me life.i honestly wish this show was longer and that more people would watch it because it is such a beautiful take on how to make lemonade out of the sour lemons that life throws at all of us. I will be recommending this show to my two friends. 10/10 would binge watch and cry again.
