Wow. I really don’t know what to say. Well let’s start with the fact that this was the worst series I have watched this year.

Apparently it’s a comedy as the main character is a stand-up comedian and CONSTANTLY joking. Most of the times it was okay. But it started to get annoying when even the more serious scenes had a lot of joking around. Overall I didn’t like at all how the serious topics were handled. Maybe I’m just too serious but I want to see at least a bit of hard emotions when the subject matter requires them.

The acting felt forced and the cutting of the scenes didn’t give much help as it was very quick and pointy if you know what I mean. Everything was happening way too fast. The reveals and hints were obvious and dropped on your face as heavily as an elephant. The interactions between the characters lacked chemistry and felt awkward most of the time.

I felt very frustrated with the characters and their decisions and actions. Some of them were so absurd that I found myself thinking that people in real life wouldn’t act that way.

One thing I found good was the representation this series gives to minorities. I learned more about what everyday life feels like when you’re transgender. And I have to say it started to get better towards the end of the season. It still wasn’t good though...

I couldn't finish this one and stopped at episode four because the relationship just made me really uncomfortable. I couldn't feel anything for our leads as a couple, and ended up hating George for how her coming out is treated. I'm just super tired of LGBTQ+ media constantly behaving as if the person who is being hurt by being kept in the closet is being unreasonable and should have more sympathy for the person not out/stay with them. George led Mae to believe she was out, that her friends were aware of her, and, meanwhile, literally lead her friends to believe she was dating a guy. When called out, she blames her friends and never takes any actual responsibility for all the harm she caused to Mae. Then there's the whole "promise you'll never leave me" conversation. George just came off as really needy and toxic, while meanwhile, Mae doesn't seem ready for a relationship at all and, while this can cause get drama, the framing just felt really off to me without enough recognition. Mae is constantly blamed for everything and it felt like none of the characters had real sympathy for her. Not bad necessarily, just too depressing for me, and I prefer to see LGBTQ+ media that has a more complex take on coming out for both sides.
