Girls5eva

This show is extremely funny but only to the right audience.

If you liked kimmy Schmidt (or anything by tina fey), this is definetly for you.

If you love love love hamilton, you will love this.

If you liked the Crazy Ex Girlfriend Songs, this is perfect for you.

If you like shows you can watch over and over and still find new hidden jokes, references and callbacks, this is definitely for you.

This show has a high addiction factor. I constantly watch it again and again!

Although i've recommend it a lot, not many would agree with me, but only because it is just for a very niche audience.

So, any negative commenters just don't get the jokes and humor of it all. You have to experience it for yourself!

Clearly this show has the same writer's room as it's got that hyper-rapid insane jokes-per-minute thing that those two shows share and that makes future re-watches rewarding because you're pretty much guaranteed to have missed at least half of them.

Also - the girls are all super talented (especially Dawn), the songs are catchy as hell - there's not much to not like. I can guarantee the bad reviews here are from the folks don't like the fire hose of over-the-top surrealist pop-culture jokes being fired at you.

Renée Elise Goldsberry is doing a perfect "Jenna from 30-rock" impression in a lot of ways. It's sometimes jarring to be looking elsewhere and hear her voice and think "Jenna!" then turn around and see Renee. Maybe it's just me.

Anyway, big thumbs up from me!

I had been looking forward to this release, and it did not disappoint. These four women are extremely funny while Goldsberry often steals any scene she is in.

Tina Fey is a hit maker. You can see her signature on fast smart comedic writing. This is a cute show that is highly entertaining. One of those you have to watch a few times to catch every joke. Still wish Titus Andramadon would show up here.

I wasn't sure how much I would like this one because this had many of the same producers and writers from "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," and I couldn't make it past the first 10 minutes of the first episode of that one. But "Girls5eva," the reunion of a Spice Girls-type group from the 90's, is much better, and much funnier. The four main players - Sarah Bareilles, Busy Philipps, Paula Pell, and Renee Elise Goldsberry - all do a great job. Goldsberry is probably the MVP of this group, because she's very funny, and she can actually sing in real life. Bareilles is in real life the most successful singer, but she's mostly the "straight-man" here among this group, and leaves the funny lines to others. Philipps is very funny, buy my favorite is probably Paula Pell. Her casting in the show itself is funny, because she plays someone who has aged so poorly compared to her counterparts that in the flashback scenes, her character is the only one who's played by a different, younger-looking actress!
