[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I stopped watching it like 10 min in bc I got a bad feeling the season was going to be abt Anne thawing toward her late husband’s young pregnant girlfriend and learning A Valuable Lesson or something and it was just too cringe. Is it not about that? [/quote]

That is one of the themes and yes she does thaw, but it’s more in a life’s too short to be angry type way.  But that’s only half of Anne’s arc.  The other characters have different arcs.

I’m a little surprised people didn’t feel that it spoke to them as Gen X.  Maybe the youngest Gen X are still too young.  I’m 53 so right in the middle of Gen X and when Tina Fey is listing off all the reasons why she’s mildly unhappy — career is fine but not that great despite her having been very career focused; kids are grown and gone; body starting to fall apart in various surprising ways, etc., I was right there with her.  The whole concept of who am I going to be for the next few decades when everything I’ve spent my life working for is basically …. done …. is very relatable for me.  There’s also stuff with marriages being challenging (taking for granted people you’ve been with for decades), and caring for aging parents and how that can upset your plans.
