Friends from College (2017–2019)
8/10
Really good

From start to finish of season 1, I was enthralled. I loved the energy and the clashing of the characters, because lets be honest, people who have had friends for many years (even just a few years) know that you have run ins with each other. It happens. Honest people can attest to this, and false people know it in their hearts.

Loved this show, and I thought the performances were great, dialogue absolutely hilarious and it warmed my heart to see them "get along" from time to time because they've known each other for 20 years.

The dynamic between (Fun) Ethan & Sam was terrific. They seemed like were right for each other. However it is funny how they show Sam and her husband and being somewhat clunky with each other (making the audience feel like she'd be better off without him if not for her already established life & family) and they show Lisa & Ethan and being pretty good together and making this happen - except when they not so good. Which is heartbreaking. Those flashback scenes when Ethan is fantasizing about her while he has to "fill the cup" are tremendous and character driven.

I feel like Marianne & Nick get a bit of a raw deal with character development and dynamic with the rest of the group of adults. Hopefully this will get a SECOND SEASON and they can branch out a little more to get all six characters bouncing off each other.
