Didn’t realize she had a new show coming out!

I’ll definitely watch. I’ve loved all of her shows, except I couldn’t get into secret life of college girls.

I’m a big fan of her shows and excited for this one

I will always give her shows a chance.

I'm a sucker for this sort of show -- pretty, ambitious young people just starting out in their careers in a photogenic city with friendship drama, romance, and humor thrown in.

Thinking first season of Grey's Anatomy and several of my favorite kdramas.

I also liked Sex Lives of College Girls, this feels like the post-grad version of that maybe.

This looks light and fun! The title is cute. Thanks OP!

Yup, I think she's moving through the trajectory of life - highschool, college and now after college.

I'd love to know which kdramas (that you've liked) these shows remind you of.

What a disappointment. Stale writing and mostly unappealing cast. Shame, I normally like Mindy K's work.

I enjoyed the first three episodes but I am a big Mindy fan and love seen Indian Americans represented in shows. The last two were not nearly as good.

Agree with the Decider review: "When characters are this boring, those will-they-won’t-they stories become more annoying than watchable."

The only watchable character is the Indian American one imo, but her storyline is dull. The rest are flat.

I love the show. I do wish that with Abby and Bill they took time to build the tension between the characters. Felt a bit too fast… not sure it wil hold my interest now.

I don't absolutely love it but I find it reliable and comforting, which is sometimes exactly what I want in a binge watch. I like Kel, the women the trust funder works with (but not the trust funder), Abby, and I am mildly invested in AJ's relationship in a train wreck kind of way. It's not laugh out loud funny but it's very watchable.
