I agree that Sarah Chalke was not sexy. I think it’s ok though because some women just aren’t all that sexy. She has an elegance about her, but not in this role. She pulled off someone more sexy and desirable in Friends From College. She was not sexy in Tully’s lingerie.

I can see the emotional affair — this is a middle aged woman with a marriage on the rocks picking a guy (PTA dad) who is similarly wounded (widower) and nearby and available. She wasn’t out looking for it to have happened.

I cannot understand why Kate’s house is so jaw droppingly amazing. She clearly doesn’t come from money and then spent most of her life not working for pay and there was no indication that Johnny comes from money.

I found the cliffhanger at the end to be a shitty thing to do to the audience especially when there is no information about if or when there will be a season 2.

+1000 I hated the end.

That said the guy who plays her emotional crush is incredibly off-putting to me also.

I agree. That deer in headlights look she constantly had was so unattractive. And yeah, the emotional crush character was not a good casting choice. I've liked him in other stuff but not this.

It was COVID quarantine entertaining, which I am grateful for. With that said, absolutely agreed Kate would never pick the EA guy over her husband and they had zero chemistry. That was not believable. But for me, Katherine Heigl in the role with her current look was also unbelievable in the role. I liked the teenage Tully but it was next to impossible to believe that the Tully character was some sort of desirable vixen. It seemed so off. She looked so unattractive.

Really? I thought the teen Tully was beautiful

Adult Tully was confident and believed in her own sexiness, and she was sexually adventurous, so men respond to her as if she is unbelievably sexy. You don’t have to look like a model to be sexy.

There was zero chemistry between Kate and Johnny. That relationship and marriage was completely unbelievable.

Maybe PP meant the adult Tully was unattractive?

He was the producer for Tully's show

Not sure what everyone is talking about with Katherine Heigl and the fillers. I think she looks really beautiful. I like her character a lot more than Kate's, and I love the scenes where the girls are in high school.

K Heighl reminds me of Charlize Theron. They are both naturally beautiful and have a sort of brash/IDGAF confidence. I find it very appealing!

I agree. And both have that lower-register voice.

I was amazed that Katherine Heigl was able to play college-aged Tully. She really looked so youthful and beautiful. And she hasn’t had fillers. She just has a very full face and always has.

I agree. And it was so obvious that Johnny always held a torch for Tully. I could never understand why those two didn’t get together (other than the one-night stand). I guess it was because Tully knew that Kate was in love with Johnny. But no way was Johnny in love with Kate!?

I just watched the show and I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed even more having a fun girly show to watch alone, without my husband. Don’t get me wrong, I love watching stuff with my husband too, but he’s not home when I’m gone sometimes (and vice versa). He’s happy to watch 2 1/2 men reruns or car shows when I’m not around, but I usually want to watch new stuff, but every time he seems me watching things he’s like “hey, I wanted to watch that! Why didn’t you wait for me?”

No such issue with Firefly lane because he hates KH and because it’s a “girly show”. Now I need to find a new show like that since I’ve burnt through the whole season.
