The Z-Suite

This is just trash and the only reason it's trash is because of the Kriska girl she's the worst character I mens come on they make her a ceo yuck I'm 26 and yeah just no this character is no in every way. I do have to say I absolutely love all the other characters they are the best lol but this kriska girl omg eww I was so looking forward to seeing a Lauren graham show again because she hasn't had nearly enough screen time since Gilmore girls I'm saddened to see her character pushed aside for a beta that makes our age group look bad omg please make that kriska character be less in the next season I think it'll get so much better without her. Lauren graham can do this show herself she doesn't need the kriska person in the show.

I'm upset because I love Lauren Graham and she is an executive producer on the show. So she is responsible for this. The characters are like cartoon characters: we are being hit over the head with the fact that the Gen z crowd are entitled and constantly spouting reasons to cancel people, and the older crowd are out of touch and too old to do their jobs properly. Who exactly is supposed to be the audience for this show? You are insulting both generations. And for people who love Lauren Graham, and might be in her age range, seeing her get fired in the first episode for being old isn't a thrill. It made me want to turn the show off immediately. It perpetuates the misconception that if you are older than the age of 50 you should be fired because you are "out of touch." Why, Lauren? Why would you do that? I want to keep watching to see if somehow her character jumps in and learns about technology so that she can be successful still in her field, but I can't stand these characters. There is nothing sympathetic about anyone on this show, so I can't watch the show long enough to find out if it gets better. I am just so disappointed. And I hate leaving a bad review because I am sure she worked very hard on the show. But you made unsympathetic characters and you insulted everyone over the age of 50 and everyone under the age of 25. So I guess your audience is the people in between?

I love you so much Lauren. I would watch anything you do. But this show was so so so bad! I hope you still do a second season but please hire new writers. The writing is horrible! Some jokes are funny! But overall the show is very flat. The characters aren't clear. Specially the they girl. The blonde one I don't remember her name. Like what's her character, who is she? And that secretary or personal assistant woman at the office. She is a terrible actress. I don't blame her. The material is so bad. But still she should have done something with it. And the black actress who is playing the CEO is so so so boring!!!

Ugh!!.. I'm so sad!

Of course the master carried a lot of this show, but it was still good. It poked fun at some real life things we see Gen Z talk/post on social media about and at boomers for having a tight grasp on things and taking it hard when that changes from failure. I guess Minnesota Matt was the millennial who just wanted to have fun and stayed true to himself even though no one wanted him around lol

I definitely would watch season 2 of this and would love to see maybe Monica and Kriska fuse or something. It was nice to see women as CEO and they're smart enough to run Oliver outta business. Just saying, I agree with that review about the writing. It's great laid back fun that's sorta predictable but totally fine because we could use some comedy on screen these days. Tubi has some gems and this is one for sure!

Lauren SO deserves a monster comeback vehicle, after her absolute masterclass performances in "Gilmore Girls" and "Parenthood", but this is painful. Don't get me wrong, Lauren absolutely CARRIES her role and steals every scene she's in, and I honestly don't think the supporting actors are bad, but the concept they're all forced to portray is "cringy" (to use a Z term) and so immaturely over-the-top that the entire show comes across as confusing and misguided.

Are we laughing WITH the Z generation or, as this old Boomer uncomfortably felt while watching, are we just being crotchety old farts making fun of not only the "Gen Z" stereotype but the actual generation itself? Mine don't even live with me anymore, but during far too many scenes I could FEEL my own Gen Z kids rolling their eyes back in disgust. The stereotype is so heavily leaned into that this feels like a generational (aka one's age range) mean-spirited hit-piece, and it becomes just another "entire-series-based-on-one-dumb-old-man-joke" comedy.

On the (very dim) bright side, there's no laugh track. Also, and the only reason I even checked this series out in the first place, there's Lauren Graham, who can make ANYTHING captivating and enjoyable. She tries so hard with what she's given here, and is worth an IMDb star all by herself, but she's only a human without magic script skills. Actually maybe she DOES have some writing input, but if so she needs more. Nico Santos plays Nico Santos, but he still cracks me up as Lauren's (Monica's") comic sounding board. His whole "tightroping-on-the-edge-of-offensive" schtick continues to be entertaining to me.

The rest of the supporting cast are fine and well-casted, the set decorations are impressive considering the obviously-low budget, the direction is creative and engaging, and honestly the writing is fine, too. The characterizations are fun, effectively silly, and written to perfection. I think it's the CONCEPT that feels played-out and somewhat hateful. Again, are we poking fun at Zs, or are we slapping them across the face?
