[quote=Anonymous]I love most of her shows. This one is just okay. It’s missing the really witty dialogue of her previous shows (the Mindy show had such funny zingers), and it doesn’t really have the heart of never have I ever. I don’t think she’s got as good a writers room. It’s fine to watch while folding laundry or working out. I suspect her formula is a little harder to keep working because when she wrote Mindy show she was still in that age frame, as were her friends and connections in comedy writing, so they were able to hit all the right cultural references and angst stuff. This one just feels like a 40 somethings view of dumb things 20 somethings do. If feel like if she hired the snl please don’t destroy writing trio, this would land better. It’s just missing that oomph. For what this show SHOULD be — go back and watch Happy Endings. Same vibe of twenty somethings doing dumb things but the dialogue and writing is just so sharp. [/quote]
