Quarterlife

This show got a lot of bad press, which seemed to be from people who either watched a few minutes of one segment, or didn't watch it at all but got their information from other reviewers.

I was ready to hate this show as being inauthentic and dull, but...well, a funny thing happened on the way to my bad review. I sort of forgot my preconceptions and got to know the characters. And I liked it.

There's quality writing here, and the show is nicely filmed and presented. It's a bit provincial, perhaps, and the angst of twentysomethings might be niche, but there's a lot here for everyone. And twists and turns and humor too. A fine way to spend your time...deserves a second season and a second look.
