...the main character wasn't hogging the screen time 99% of the time and continuously just talking and talking and talking. I did enjoy the first season, but something about second that it got super annoying just hearing Andrea's sarcastic non-stop yap and pretty much same jokes about "private parts" over and over again.
It got just too much.

If you liked the humor in "The League" then you will love this show. Not sports oriented but same vibe. Very funny stuff. Raunchy in a sweet way. Andrea was also hilarious on "Episodes" also.
This comedy show in intended for adult audiences. It features Andrea Savage and Tom Everett Scott as parents of a young daughter, played by newcomer Olive Petrucci.
Olive is adorable and Tom ("La La Land") is a great foil for Andrea's stand-up style of humor. She doesn't tiptoe through the minefield of motherhood, she bulldozes. She targets new trends with a non-PC outspokenness that is refreshing. In one episode she lampoons "goddess parties".
The show features a great supporting cast, like Kathy Baker ("Boston Public"; "Boston Legal"; and other non--Boston shows), and some guest stars who are fun to see (like Judith Light and Martin Mull). I hope some of them (like Morgan Walsh and Gary Anthony Williams) will return.
If you like sharp-edged humor and don't mind some profanity, this is a good show to watch. The style of humor reminds me of "Nobodies" and "Teachers".

Like most reviews mention, Andrea is the star of every scene in every episode, with 80% or more of the talking done exclusively by her. Some of the scenarios and dialogue ends up being funny or cute, while a similar portion of them feel forced or only possible by the support/encouragement of her friends. I enjoyed the light-hearted nature of the show that served as a reminder not to take life too seriously, which lifted my spirits when I watched. Gary Anthony Williams (Brian) really added a fun vibe and I loved the scenes with him in it. Her daughter was probably one of the worst parts of the show, with cringe-worthy unnatural questions, or the parents talking about inappropriate topics around her as if she wasn't there.
I'm giving the show a solid 7, as it kept me entertained, put me in a better mood after watching, and had some funny moments plus a good cast.

I LOVED S1, but 2 episodes into S2 and I am already tired of Andrea's character. It's too much all the time. Maybe 1 episode a month, but certainly not bingeable. Too bad. Take it down a few notches.
