The premise sounds interesting - friends pulled back together. Reminds me of my own college gang trying to stay in touch after everyone got busy with careers and family. Looking forward to the humor and heart.
Good to see more indie-style content getting a global platform like Netflix. Indian OTT platforms should also pick up such award-winning shows. The cast looks promising, especially with Jamie Chung guest starring! 👍
Honestly, I tried Season 1 and found it a bit slow. The humor didn't always land for me. But I appreciate that it's trying to be "raw and authentic." Maybe Season 2 with the new guest stars will pick up the pace. Will give it another shot.
May 11 release is perfect timing. Just after my semester exams. Need a good comedy to binge. The fact that it won prizes at festivals is a good sign. Hope Netflix promotes it well in India.
As someone who works in the media industry here, it's inspiring to see actors creating their own content. Lafferty and Colletti wearing multiple hats - acting, directing, producing. More power to them! Wishing the team all the best for S2.
