Plan de carrière

Just finished 3rd episode and I am truly surprised how easy to watch it is. Very refreshing show, characters are really likable, story too. Something between Harvey & Mike from Suits relation & Rom-com. It got potential, its relatable. The main character has drive yet she is searching balance between career and private life, like most of us in our 30s.

I found it pretty hard to get into this series, it was pretty messy and confusing in the beginning. Maybe it's my lack of knowledge about business and law or something else, but half of the time I had no idea what was going on. Towards the end though, the story started to become more clear and easier to follow.

While I was watching this I noticed myself asking what the point of this series was. What's the real story here? What are they trying to convey to the viewer? Because, this series didn't really bring anything new or interesting to the table and it was hard understand the whole concept. Some aspects of this show were enjoyable and/or well though out; the racism issue, the characters' friendships and relationships. I'm sure there is something to valuable and fascinating about this series, which would have become clearer with improved writing.

If you want something mindless to binge on a weekend this isn't horrible. But the acting of the main actress was just bad and her two love interests weren't much better. She was so uninteresting with no real character arch. And there was zero chemistry between her and Murphy which made that entire storyline feel fake. Didn't get a ton of chemistry Bentsen her and Nick either but that may have been the point in that relationship. The characters Rachel and Tyler were more interesting and played by much better actors. I might watch a season 2 if there is one but based off of season 1 not sure. There are so many side characters that come and go but don't provide a lot of value because they're not there long enough: Justin, Ingrid's sister, etc. Overall this show isn't horrible but not good either.

I expected to turn it off within 30 minutes. I expected it to be as bad as a Lifetime movie. As bad as all the other Netflix romantic shows and movies. But when I got to the end credits of the first episode and realized it wasn't a movie, I felt an inkling of hope that this might actually be interesting.

It is borderline cheesy most of the time. But somehow, it manages to skirt that line and overcome it with relatively compelling characters and story, as well as just enough chemistry and decent pacing. I am on episode 7 and haven't fast forwarded once.

Maybe it was the low expectations... maybe it was the mood... Either way, it's nice to be pleasantly surprised.

What is it about Hollywood? Why do the leads always have to cheat on their partners? I actually find it pathetic that the scriptwriters in US dramas feel that they need to devolve into banal personal angst episodes of love triangles, cheating and lying.

I enjoy the ethical and moral issues raised during these business deals. Why cant we focus on the real meat? The work of being an M&A lawyer..
