Good show. 10 episodes between 35-45 minutes.
Hard to describe without going into it.

First couple of episodes are a little slow but it’s worth it.

Kind of like a multi-episode Black Mirror

7/10

This is being pitched as a comedy which is a genre I'm really not into.

Jonah Hill is trash as well. Is he still acting like he's in High School?

Wait, is Jonah Hill abhorrently fat or saddeningly skinny this time?

Netflix itself.

I get that netflix has a knack for putting movies/TV shows in the wrong category all the time though.

If this is a serious drama then I might give it a shot.

It's got some funny moments but it's not a comedy. But it's also not like furrowed eyebrow serious like Chicago Fire or whatever it is you watch.

While I generally agree with the OP taste in movies, I disagree with this one. It was a desperate attempt to recreate Eternal Sunshine (the Jim Carrey one) and tried to be weird for the sake of weird. Personally I thought it was boring as fuck but watched the whole thing thinking “well, these are all really good actors so it has to get good eventually”.....it did not.

Just my opinion.
