I Love That for You

This is a good dramedy about the behind-the-scenes of a shopping network with a strong set of characters, some very unusual plot twists and jokes that manage to make you laugh. It has a very unique setting - I can't remember another show about TV shopping.

And there is someone in this show who steals almost all of it - JENNIFER LEWIS, WOW. Just an incredible acting performance, pure gold. She almost becomes the protagonist at some point - should there be a spinoff, it should be about her character. The dialogues are well-written in this show and with her delivery some of them just become really, really, amazing. Made me want to check her other works, too.

I do believe this could have been a very successful comedy movie, too, maybe a shorter time would do this whole concept good. But I enjoyed it nevertheless.

Just watch the first episode and you'll be engaged with most characters and enjoy. I expected corny humor. But it's only a little corny. It otherwise has that wonderful mix of humor , melancholy and romance. Very enjoyable.

Great writing and very promising!! Also very fresh with its comedic approach! Vanessa Bayer and Molly Shannon are just so brilliant. Excited to see where this goes!

I've read all the reviews here as of May 21, 2022, and not a single one resonates with how I feel about this show, so I'm writing my own.

First of all, as I write this on May 21, 2022, only three episodes of this show have aired. So how can anyone possibly have definitive feelings about a show after seeing just 3 episodes?? As of today, I'm giving it a solid 7, but I will certainly update this review after I've watched the entire first season.

Based on the 3 episodes I have seen, I think this show has potential. It's far too early to judge how the characters might (or might not) develop, and how the general plot of the show will progress. What I can tell you is that it's funny so far, and it has promise. Is it the funniest show I've ever seen? Of course not. How can any show be that great just 3 eps in? Shows like this need time to develop, and we just don't know yet where the story is going to take us.

What I do know is that the premise feels a bit fresh and orginal, and I like that. Someone here compared it to I Love Lucy, and said that neither this show nor I Love Lucy, are funny. Huh? That just makes no sense to me. I don't think this show resembles I Love Lucy at all, and I think both shows are funny. Someone else said the show is "woke" because it has Black and Brown people in the cast?? If diversity in casting offends you to the point where you're using words like "woke" in the pejorative, I think you've got other issues. I'll just leave it at that.

Back to the show: I think it's going to be much funnier to you if you've actually watched home shopping channels for any length of time. I have (they were a thing I watched pretty frequently in the 90s/early 2000s when I was trying to fall asleep at night) so in that respect, the show resonates with me. One thing I've always found interesting about home shopping channel hosts is how incredibly fake they appear. Always happy, chipper, and selling you things you don't need. I have always been fascinated by their on-air personas and if they actually match their off-air personas, and I LOVE that this show confronts that head-on. It's a premise that's rife with comedic potential and so far it has given me some good laughs. I hope it continues to do so. I'll let you know after the season ends. So far so good.

I know we're only 3 episodes in so far but my god this is good!!! This is pure gold. Vanessa is incredible!! Everyone in the cast is excellent. Such perfect comedy and timing. The writing it great. I absolutely love everything about this show so far. MORE!! PLEASE!!
