This series follows the chronological love life of a 20-something in NYC, played by Anna Kendrick, with each episode focusing on a different relationship.
It's entertaining enough, and luckily the episodes aren't too long (30 mins) but honestly it's nothing to write home about. It doesn't say anything particularly unique or thought-provoking about love, nor is it particularly funny.
Though I've liked Anna Kendrick in other productions, personally she doesn't do it for me here. For a show that's entirely centered on its main character, the main character is kinda bland and a little annoying.
"Love Life" the new romance anthology from "HBO Max" is a little series that's entertaining as it tries to capture the present day journey and trials of love and life of one Darby(the good Anna Kendrick) a "NYC" millennial who as a single girl in the big city has fun as she explores the bedroom with different loves, as her relationships are fun yet messy. Really the series is a take on the highs and lows of life and love. Darby and her friends are still trying to figure out life and dreams, as Darby has somewhat had the cards stacked against her after being a child of divorced parents. She also struggles in the job world often changing jobs as much as boyfriends. Each episode moves forward following a new love in the life of Darby, as always love hurts as it's complex and tough. Still despite the relationship drama the series is fun, soul searching and entertaining.
I absolutely loved the first season! The second season is good too it was just dirtier from a guys perspective I guess - so wasn't the cute lovey show from season 1 that I expected. Still good just not as good as first season since that's not my typical type of show (cheating and threesome's etc).
Give this one star or ten stars, it does not matter. But if you have the patience to just watch, and you are a real person, this has something. Thank you for making this
I'm a bit of sucker for romantic tales - and decided to watch just one episode. Like all REALLY good shows - I was a gonner - and ended up binge watching both seasons over the next few days ... Season 1 with Darby, and then Season 2 with Marcus.
Both seasons are really really good. Both leads and supporting casts are really good.
It's really a perfect ying yang - and at the end of both seasons you'll be sitting there with a smile on your face. Perfectly content. And with a deeper knowing that we are all imperfect, all better for having others to share our lives with ... and that life is indeed something you have to work at.
