Really big fan of this show and I like the light hearted way to approach to heavy topics in shows


Similar to Ted Lasso, it’s been really good at hitting some heavy topics and hitting them in a really sincere way. This show won’t win the awards it should, but I really hope it gets a second life, kind of like Ted Lasso did as the word of mouth got out. Every person I’ve told about it has loved it too. Spread the word!

Derek didn’t miss this week

Loves the finale.

Any word on renewal?

Really loved this show but the finale felt a little lackluster. I wish episode 9 had been the finale.

Disagree…thought the finale was great…several laugh out loud moments…seeing all of them dance around was very heartwarming…this show combines humor and serious stuff better than most…
Haven’t laughed so hard at a tv show in a long long time

I'm curious but Segel's sad sack schtick is so annoying...


Weird take. He has has maybe two movies in that tone. He plays more goofball / wise-arse roles than anything else.

Missus and I started watching this. We like it a good bit, but there are times when it feels over the top (like the whole episode about Alice and Connor getting together).

Segel is great in this, and Ford does a wonderful job with a difficult character. Gaby goes from hot to not with a quickness- she never looks the same way twice.

I can't imagine having neighbors that involved in my business.

I like how this show is clearly picking up viewers as people get Apple TV for Ted Lasso.

Apple needed to lanche this slightly afte TL not slightly before

Not reading the whole thread because we’re only four eps in, but man this show has been really good.

Bumping this thread

My wife and I binged this in the past few days. On Ep 9 now

We both like it. I give it a solid B. I’m wondering, what do people think of the chick neighbor? I can’t tell if I like her or if she’s annoying. I’m so distracted by her plastic surgery

Another thing that bugs me is all the women gush over the Sean. The neighbor, Gaby and Alice call him beautiful and stunning. What am I missing?

He’s an average looking overweight 20 something.

Liz is my second favorite character, only coming in behind her husband Derek - dude doesn’t miss with the one liners. Liz is a lot to handle and a little annoying but that makes sense based on her personality, I really like that she showed up for Alice the whole year after her mom died and her dad was spinning out (although we didn’t see it). That just shows her true character and really respect that sort of person, regardless of her shortcomings
