Love 2016

It's a weak show, but it gets better towards the second half. Another one in a recent trend of "comedies" that follow utterly unlikeable people that the audience is supposed to identify with through cringe-y situations. Saved by Gillian Jacobs' performance, primarily. It occasionally strikes gold for a few moments, but prepare to be bored for big chunks.

Didn't need to write my own review b/c this sums it up nicely. Would add that I enjoyed it a lot but I was never sure why and I'm not sure who I would recommend this to. It portrays a more plausible relationship than in most romance-comedy premises I think. Nearing the end of the second season it felt like the story had pretty much been told. A third season of the same dynamic might feel forced?
