Anyone else watching this on Netflix?
I'm really into it period of course the women are hugely privileged and sort of live in their LA bubble, but I love the French absurdity of it. I watched most of the episodes on mute with subti and was surprised that Alexis Landaeu Had such a Cali Valley accent.

I think we're supposed to think the characters are all terrible people but is it terrible that I related to them?

I'm watching it. I find it weird how childlike the teen children are and how much the parents baby them.

The first episode was boring and the characters aren’t compelling. Does it get better?

I’ve watched the first two episodes and I’m into it. I though the dinner party episode was great! The French husband is a douchbag!

I finished it. I thought it was somewhat entertaining but not particularly good. Elizabeth Shue looks great.

They all look pretty good (natural) for upper 40s - mid 50s
But Alexis Landeau has done weird filler thing going on. Almost looks like Glasgow smile.

I watched one episode and thought it was terribly written. Poor talented Sarah Jones having to play such ridiculous character! They made her completely unlikable.

I’ve watched two episodes, too. The premise has promise, but it’s badly written and just dumb. I’ve given up.

Love Sarah Jones. Not a spoiler I hope but there are reasons revealed later why Yasmin is that way.

I expected this show to be better than what it is and was disappointed. As a 40 something woman I was looking forward to watching a smart show about women my age-this was just silly. Only Elizabeth Shue's character seemed like a real person-the other three were goofy/odd/histrionic (and not in interesting ways). Not the actresses fault-just bad writing.

I will finish it tonight. I really wanted to like it, stayed the course to find SOMETHING to like. I laughed a couple of times, but, no. This, in the end, it just was tedious.

It's very French. It's goofy, absurd, surreal. Obsessed with food but they work it in organically
