The Now

I came upon this show while I was at my lowest. Didn't know what to expect at first, but having to watch this show and all of its meanings. It made me feel like I wasn't alone. That life is unpredictable and that if I focus on what happened in the past, I won't be able to focus on The Now. I want to say thank you for making me feel this when my back was against the wall. It also opened my eyes to how much people over think thoughts we ourselves create. Whether it's PTSD or anxiety, it's okay to look and ask for help. So I wanna say Thank You for seeing me in you.

P. S. Please have a season 2. Ed still has to find himself.

I liked Quibi a lot and they had some really great content and I was excited that Roku bought their content but with that being said, I'm pissed that they haven't renewed any of it. Of all the stuff I watched, this was easily the best and had so much potential for another season with Dummy being a close second. I love the dark comedy and it's well written as well as acted. Sad they canceled.

This whole bs of so many characters is getting old really fast since the best reviews are usually short and sweet; we don't need wannabe critics and/or wannabe jacket writers writing a synopsis of the content or going on forever and a day to meet the required characters.

It started out really good.. it was funny but also seemed like it would lead up to a deeper meaning at the end.

For me personally I thought the further I got into it the more it just wasn't funny. I found myself really laughing for about 4 episodes and then it seemed to just get a little dry. It was like they was trying their hardest to paint a deep and serious picture and forget it was a comedy.

It also annoyed me that the episodes are 10 minutes long. There are 14 episodes so they could have done 7 episodes that are 20 minutes long.

I also didn't like how it ended. It was rushed.. there was so some side stories they started but never finished. Like what happened with him ex girlfriend? Or what happened to the people working for him?

The only reason I continued to watch it until the end was because it was a quick and easy watch.

I didn't know what to expect going in but I have to say that I was most pleasantly surprised. The series is well written, directed and has an outstanding cast.

Dave Franco was brilliant. Jimmy Tatro and Bill Murray knocked it out of the park. Rob Yang, what can I say, I was in awe watching him do his thing. It was a really top notch performance and my favorite of the bunch. Also great to see Alyssa Milano playing a warm character on screen and not selling a bunch of fashion nonsense.

As mentioned, the writing, direction and production were top notch. The subject matter is real and was handled nicely. A show that makes you think just a little is not a bad thing. Couple that with some crazy and unexpected twists and turns and this was such an easy series to binge. It's not perfect by any means with some of the turns being a bit juvenile but it makes up for it many times over.

It started out so well in the first few episodes, but Dave Franco's over-acting is a cross between Bob Newhart and Al Pacino, and it becomes overbearing and annoying. It's also quite violent in parts, gratuitously so. I see the importance of those scenes, but they went on for far too long. The Eckharte premise is fine and good for inspiring people to be here now, and there is an underlying point about not expecting people to change, we're all going to mess up at inopportune times. It's a movie about compassion, and it does that part well, especially by not trying to tie up every loose end, just like life. Bill Murray's casually brilliant insights are great. I wish the director had reigned in Franco and pushed him to deliver at least some of his lines straight, and it would've been a much better series.
