But I love Michael Urie and Ted mcginley in this. Michale urie is really so good — in another actors hands that role might be really irritating but he makes it sing.
I find this frustrating, too. Gabby is so compelling (the actress and the character when she's not being SO SASSY) but her dialogue is just so over the top.
This character is very similar to how she was on the podcast Two Dope Queens, so I don't find it over the top at all.
I love this show!!!

He’s doing an amazing job with the Parkinson’s storyline.

You haven’t missed it - they haven’t showed the actual accident where the Mom dies (presumably in her Mini Cooper.)
I agree that the befriending of the drunk driver who killed the mother - and the daughter’s foot stomping insistence that her father be his therapist! - is unrealistic AF. I’m hoping it won’t take me out of the show because I love everything else.

Season three is already confirmed.
jimmy will definitely hook up with the HIMYM Cooper seller
OMG I didn't realize they were both on HIMYM. Cobie Smulders is also in Marvel.

A similar watch pattern for me for Shrinking, Ted Lasso and Schitt’s Creek too. They take some getting used to.
I got used to Ted Lasso and Schitt's Creek, and ended up loving both. I'm still struggling with Shrinking after two seasons. But I'll watch because we're short on other options we're both semi-interested in.

Agree about the dialogue between women. Some of the dialogue is just not realistic at all - like trying too hard.
True. But it's funny, so I don't really care.
