Too Much

I was waiting for this, hoping it would be as fresh as Girls used to be, but instead, it's surprisingly boring, dreadfully boring.

Surprisingly unfunny or trying too hard to be funny.

Those office characters-we've see them in every Netflix show that has an office.

There's nothing fresh about the show.

The Girls had such brilliant dialogue that if you missed any part of it, you were losing something; here, the conversations mean nothing to the viewer-they're empty, just private babble that makes you feel like you're wasting your time watching it.

Oh, and the main character feels like an extension of her character from Hacks - is that intentional?

The main character jokes around and makes looks so much that it's not even believable as a real person. Even when she's supposed to be heartbroken it is a farce. Cringy. I'd like some character with substance. No one in the world acts the way these characters do but the main character more so than others. No substance at all just one "joke" after the other.

After watching the entire series, I realized it felt like a social commentary on our individualistic and narcissistic culture. It made me sad, and I think it was supposed to make me laugh. It felt like everybody was so egotistical in this series there was not one redeeming character, including the protagonist. I wanted to like her a little more, but I just couldn't. She just kept sabotaging herself. Also, this series felt like it lacked a really good, strong plot sometimes it felt quite boring and like they were stretching the series for more episodes. I gave it a higher score because I loved all of the actors performances. It was nice to see Lena again, and I know she created this. I would say this had a beautiful moments and very disturbing moments, but I'm not going to be recommending it overall.

I didn't research any of the actors/producers/writers/creators before watching. Not too long into the first episode, I immediately clocked Lena Dunham's touch. If you've seen Dunham's "Girls" (HBO) you will get immediate Hannah energy from the main character. From what I've seen so far, a lot of the situations Jessica herself into are very similar to Hannah from Girls. BUT, it does not have quite the same wit and bite as the dialogue in Girls. Girls felt messier without TRYING to be. Jessica is just a tinge over the top to where it's borderline unbelievable that anyone is friends with her or wants to be with her. Lena's previous characters, like Hannah Horvath, were more fleshed out. They are trying TOO HARD to make Jessica a "mess".

Nope, just not it. Could not get in to the main character. I find her too be very egoistic, way too dramatic and very self-centred.

As a European it is way too much American exaggerated drama about feelings and making it all about you.

First episode started out strong but just didn't get picked up after. The obsessive part with the ex wavering on way too long during the season. With in the end kind of soft boring ending.

Did like a lot of the acting and the different characters, but the script can use a little less of the almost hateful main character.

Definitely way "too much". Would I recommend, no. Would I watch again, no. Would I wish for my time back, YES!
