Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAt around 33:15, Reese Witherspoon's character says something about how "they're bringing in my big sister to clean up my f'ing mess" upon mentioning Jennifer Aniston's character's reunion with hers. While this is most likely purely coincidental, way back when she had a guest slot on Friends (1994), Witherspoon had played the youngest sister of Jennifer Aniston's character Rachel, who was responsible for cleaning up her baby sister's messes.
- GoofsWhen Mitch is in the bar in Italy, the television shows several Serie A team names in English. What's more, the specific highlight shown is captioned "la prima metà" to mean "the first goal", but this is supposed to be "il primo gol" as "metà" only means "goal" in the sense of "objective".

Gets more dramatic but...
The story gets more dramatic with the episode with higher drama and more conflict. So there are some really interesting scenes. However, Bradley is acting out in a way that feels unrealistic and entitled. I know she's always been a stubborn, hot-headed character. In s1, I applauded some of her brave actions and I disagreed with some of her actions too, but I always found her understandable and very entertaining to watch. But in the episode (and ep1), she comes across as childish with zero gratitude for the good things that she DOES have. Hoping that's because a good character arc will be set up for her. Because if I'm supposed to be feeling sympathy for her because some business maneuvering went on without her knowledge, well... that's a bit tone deaf. Cry me a river, Bradley. Just saying.
It will be interesting to see how Covid is incorporated. So far, the nuggets dropped are interesting and well done. Oh, how oblivious we all we. It's a snapshot of the time "before" Covid and I look forward to seeing how they handle the pandemic.
