This series begins promising enough but runs out of steam by the second episode, featuring a hard exterior but with a soft, creamy inside. Biggest problem is that the script is not funny enough to support many of the attempts at jokes. The ensemble acting is a bit amateurish. The underlying and persistent rom com story lines don't have enough punch to ding their subjects and the whole thing is so sloppily assembled you wish someone had rescued the crew from this dull ride. The worst part is the main character, played by the writer, is such an asshole you just don't care about her - or any other character. It seems like the people behind this haven't a clue about how to retain the irreverence while making sharp observations of human nature and tickling your funny bone at the same time. This should be funny, not merely amusing. If there is going to be another second set of episodes, re-casting should be top priority. An editor for Waller-Bridge wouldn't hurt. This kind of show should have laugh out loud moments (like the much sharper White Gold) and a tightness that pulls it all together. But it just sits there.
