YOOOO NT FAM,
So I saw there was some discussion going on in the Netflix thread about this show and I figured it was so good and such a great conversational topic that it deserved its own thread!
Not to mention I personally loved the hell out of that show and binged the entire first season within 1 week.
I really enjoyed the style that each episode followed and that Judd Apatow really gave us a rom-com series that was so unconventional and non-fairy tale-esque. Like it was cool to see more of a realistic view of people that age and society as an outside arena that allows people to find or create love in it. There's sex, drugs, and humor in this show which is automatically a win cause lets be honest which of us here don't enjoy those three components to life. Not to mention that at no point in time did watching this show make you feel like youre possibly watching something that was made more tailored for females to enjoy.
I absolutely fell in love with Mickey(yes I know she was crazy as ****) but something about her badassness and desire to be loved just kinda rubbed off on me. I also found that while I thought I could relate to Gus being a nice guy having found himself enamored with a crazy girl I really think it was interesting to see the moments where he would be a jerk because that seemed more natural then when he was TRYING to be this nice guy he thinks he is. I don't want to give away too much for those who havent finished the first season yet but I'll just say I'm already jonesing for season 2.
Also JONESING for Gillian Jacobs the actress that plays Mickey in the show. I dunno what it is but for some reason she's just fine AF to me and has now thrown me into a head over heels celebrity crush hahaha. It probably didnt help that I followed her on IG and found out that she loves jays(and hopefully other more in-depth with the culture sneakers). Got some eye candy for yall below.
So how do yall feel about this show lets talk?!?
