Happily being one of the very few (I actually can`t think of another TV Series exploring the same theme) polyamorous romances out there, "You Me Her" manages to captivate your attention and your heart with its loving characters and cute situations. This TV Series is without a doubt a favorite of the "Romance" genre to me, together with "Love" from Judd Apatow.
The Plot Don't get me wrong, I know nothing of polyamorous relationships (nor monogamous relationships either), but for me, this TV Series manages to explore the doubts and insecurities that people in a polyamorous relationship goes through. They explore the insecurities of being just a third wheel ( like Jack in the second Season and Izzy in the third ), the insecurities and fears to face society (not that they explicitly show any strong prejudice) and some other details like friends judging you because of your relationship decisions etc. It is wildly interesting plot, while it does rely on cliches its cuteness and its pleasant ambiance makes up for it.
The Characters, or why the cuteness extreme I can't say why, but every single character in this TV Series are loving and caring, they may have their quirkiness and their weaknesses but they overall care for each other. It is a nice change from the base overgrowing post-modern cynical TV Series appearing all over the place like everything on Adult Swim (which I do like, but sometimes its tiresome to always question if things have meaning or not). Even if I stated that I can say that during the first season I actually didn't like the protagonists Jack and Emma's judgmental friends, but they grow up and stuff doing it.
The Soundtrack There is very few TV Series that manages to catch my attention with its soundtrack, this is, unfortunately, not one.
Final Thoughts While I regard this as one of my favorite "light romcom" TV Series, I still see some minor flaws, but its positive message and its interesting subject, while cliched, make up for it. It is a nice romance that everyone should watch.
