Watched the first couple episodes of this tonight. On one hand, it’s nice to enjoy the mindless nostalgia of something similar to Love Actually without having to deal with all of the problems that movie has. On the other, it felt a little too “like this if you cry every time” for me in places. Gonna keep watching regardless — I started for Fey and I’m not stopping til I see her!
Love Actually is a pretty good comparison since some stories are much better than others, and the bad ones are pretty rough. I definitely think the season was frontloaded. Still need to see the last though.
I really enjoyed the first two episodes. There's nothing fresh or new, but I love Dev Patel and Cristin Milioti so I think they really sold it. Stuff like this really hinges on the actors for me.
Landed the plane with 7 & 8. Yeah I dunno if I’ll giving any hard recommendations for anybody to watch this, but the highs were pretty high.
This was very nice through and through. Some great episodes, some bad, but a great little series for right now
Dev and the zoo > Cristin and her doorman > hospital stuff > old love and tying up loose ends > Tina Fey and mad man > two men and a baby > Daddy issues > Anne Hathaway singalong
season was bad haha one episode was quite good. i want to say episode 7? but i can’t remember and it wasn’t good enough to sit through the other bullshit
I liked the sleepover at the school episode, but yeah…that Anna Paquin episode was really odd and bad.
