Your Friends & Neighbors

I started watching this show with no expectations and very soon it took me in. A great, smooth and funny John Hamm and the rest of the cast is also well chosen.

Basically the story has a lot of potential and could become something huge if the surprises keep coming. Up to this point the storytelling is subtle and intriguing, although I don't like the part with the troublesome kids, which I think is just too worn out. But besides that, it has its moments, nice one liners and of course the superb narration of Coop which always come into play at the right time.

I believe Apple TV just landed another great show.

John hamm makes everything he's in better. From good omens to fargo to the princess bride home movie.

Same goes for hoon lee- warrior and banshee wouldn't have been the same without him.

Your friends and neighbors is a coherent and sophisticated romp through the hypocrisy and falsities of the country club elite.

I like most everything about this show. An issue i have with it is the music though. It's terrible- from the theme song to every whiny hipster ballad conclusion, i can not stand the music they choose for this show. The original orchestral compositions are fine, but whoever is picking the pop songs needs a new career.

Hey, this is my first review here ever so take it with a pinch of your favorite condiment, on the other hand I hate nothing more than spoilers so read it safely.

This tv series is no different than any others, there's no chance you could please everyone and just like in life, if you read more reviews you'll find them all, great, amazing, bad, terrible and so on.

What I think this show offers, and bare with me, this is only up to episode four so far, is a bit of everything, a bit of humor, a bit of drama, a bit of unnecessary, just about as usual, now what I think makes it a great show is by delivering some great lines, if you're like me, and love a great line, you'll find plenty in this one, quite like in "Landman" where Jon is a protagonist as well, but those lines there don't come from him, but still a great watch that was, again... in my opinion.

I think those who will enjoy this show are those in mid/late 30's+ and I say that as I believe many will find themselves in one way or other in some of the scenes you'll be witness throughout the show, a bit of an emotional rollercoaster at times, but not a bad one, it's normal to feel that way, it will bring up memories, good and bad possible, especially parenting wise, it hits the spot for quite some of us with that, hence the mid/late 30's+ note.

Overall I think it will find it's own crowd.

Well, what can I say?

I've just binged two-thirds of the first season in two days and found it surprisingly fun to watch.

It's a gripping, intelligent and emotionally rich series that exceeded all expectations. With sharp writing, subtle tension and complex characters, it paints a compelling picture of suburban life, where secrets simmer just beneath the surface.

Jon Hamm delivers one of his best performances to date - nuanced, charismatic and deeply human. The entire cast is excellent, but Hamm anchors the show with quiet power and emotional depth.

Beautifully shot and perfectly paced, this is a must-watch for fans of slow-burn drama.

If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Jonathan Tropper and everyone else put in to make this happen.

I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.

Thank you.

This show isn't about friendship or suburban bonds - it's about the vast, echoing emptiness in between. The characters wear irony like armor, laugh through despair, and live in glossy homes that hide rotting lives. Every scene scratches at something uncomfortable: the truth that beneath polite smiles and well-trimmed hedges, there's loneliness, fear, and quiet collapse. Even the humor here doesn't offer relief - it's more like a nervous laugh at your own reflection. It's a comedy that leaves you unsettled - and strangely seen. Which makes real life feel even emptier. Uneasy. Almost lonely. Almost eerie.
