So good, so refreshing!
This was so good! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Although I'm not in my 30s but I could relate to all these characters' problems. It's hard to find the right man, the right job, the right friends and when you found it it's even harder to keep them. I wish there would be more seasons. Issa's character is really loveable the places it was filmed are beautiful. Great series 👌
Easily one of my favourite shows the last 5 years
I absolutely love this show!!! Covers so many relationship dynamics and societal commentary. The show is relatable and HILARIOUS!! Kelly and Issa make me laugh WAY TOO MUCH. Really sad this will be the last season but so far season 5 has not disappointed!!! GREAT SHOW!!!!
Relatable
My daughter introduced "Insecure" to me when it first premiered, but I wasn't feeling it at all. I've been married now close to 30 years and didn't think it was relevant to my 50+ age. However, she was on her 2nd round of re-watching this year and since it was the Christmas holidays, I said why not? Well, I binged the entire series over the weekend and fell in love with all of the characters and the scenarios were absolutely hilarious!
The characters/actors had mad chemistry. Yes, I've had friends 40+ years and throughout the years, we have experienced the breakdown in communication, not speaking, interest/conversation/viewpoint changes, etc., but at the end of the day, we're down for each other. My only constructive feedback is the use of the N word and the explicit sex scenes ( could have left some to the imagination, we get it ). Otherwise, no matter the age this show is relatable and so you know, it's not much different from the 80s/90s scene.

Well-written and acted series that's worth your attention
Issa Rae has done a wonderful job writing and playing the lead character in "Insecure." I think this is a very well-written show with an engaging ensemble cast. The characters feel real and relatable, even though they are all much younger and hipper than me! I am 48 and live on the opposite coast, yet I felt that I had experienced many of the same things that Issa, Molly and their friends have in this series: the confusing romantic and sexual connections, the frustrating career experiences, the self-doubt and, most importantly, the benefit of good friendships. I caught "Insecure" one night on HBO and was instantly engaged. It's entertaining and stylishly produced as well. I really like the way the show has expanded to explore Molly's and Lawrence's characters in depth along with Issa's complex experiences and character development.
Confession: I struggled to get through a couple of seasons of HBO's "Girls" because it was always being praised in the media, and I hated it. "Insecure" is vastly superior. I can't wait for the new season.

The show should be called "Immature"
I really enjoyed the first season and I thought the show would go in the direction of being intelligent and insightful. I also thought it would make a statement about negative African American stereotypes. However, I find Season 2 is just playing into many of the stereotypes unfortunately.
Season 2 lacks maturity, intelligence and purpose. The characters all come off as immature people who never left high school mentally even long after becoming working professionals. Also, none of the characters seem intelligent at all. Especially Issa and Lawrence. Those two always have a permanent confused/surprised look on their faces like the lights are on but nobody's home.
Hopefully, the story line will lead somewhere interesting and not just be 30 minutes of stereotypes every Sunday. There is not a single character on the show that isn't a black stereotype to some degree. Sigh...
