Omg I don’t know how I hadn’t watched this but it is hilarious! Highly recommend. (For context, other tv comedies I’ve liked: Derry girls, the good place, 30 rock, Kimmie Schmidt)

+1--it was pretty funny.

There must be a thread on this as it was truly hilarious … laughed so hard …

Meredith Scardino, the main writer also wrote for the Colbert Report and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I really enjoy her humor.


Big P@ssy Energy spoof song is so good.

I can't watch it because I vehemently hate Busy Phillips. Anything she's in is completely ruined for me.

Give it a chance - she is one of the least featured cast members … she is overdone but the overall chemistry between the characters is great.

Did you even try watching? Because the stupid name is part of the entire joke. PP. Band name for a manufactured "girl group" from way back, now trying to make a second career happen as more legit musicians (and saddled with their old, ridiculous group name). You're missing out if you won't watch solely because of the show's name.

+1 And the over-the-top character Phillips plays is, well, supposed to be over-the-top and grating at times. So, good casting.

I swear, between the "I won't watch because of the show's title" post and the "I won't watch because I dislike one actor" post, I despair that TV viewers just choose the shallowest possible reason not to give shows even a single episode to try to get their attention. Well, this show was at least well regarded enough that when it was dropped by one streamer, another picked it up and made more episodes, so someone out there's watching.

This show was so entertaining, and every actor was well-cast in it. REG is a treasure (the scene with her, Sara Bareillies and Daniel Breaker singing BPE in the apt is so great). The songs are the best part - they are hilarious. I applaud everyone involved in this show - the writers, actors, producers who took a chance on it. Glad to find fellow fans!

Loved this show! So many literal LOL moments. I think my favorite episode is when they ended up in Maryland at the childhood home.

Yes!!!

This show is a treasure - I have the theme song in my head nearly all the time; it's only not there when I get BPE in my head instead
