Noooooooooo! Season 2 was better, I started caring about each character!

How can the mediocre Frankie and Grace show survive for years and this one get cancelled after 2 years?

Wait now, I liked this show but don't be hating on Frankie and Grace that's some good TV

The older actress is an obvious smoker or ex-smoker and is way too skinny, both of which ages you. As an actress she's probably lying about her age by a couple of years. Cobie has been too famous for too long to get away with that.

I have an ongoing quibble with the casting in terms of the actors' ages. Colbie Smulders and the actress who plays Marianne look (and probably are) 5-10 years younger than the actress who plays Sam (who is beautiful but looks like she's in her 40's). The characters are supposed to be in their early 40's (although I think Colbie Smulders's character is supposed to be 2 or 3 years younger)-the male actors and the actress who plays Sam look that age but Colbie and the actress who plays Marianne look significantly younger.

Another thing I think is odd is that the actor who plays Nick (Nat Faxon) has crooked teeth. Nick is supposed to be a trust fund baby-there is no way that someone that wealthy would have teeth like that. It's not a reflection on Nat Faxon-I think he's a good actor and that he does a great job with the part-it just doesn't make sense in terms of the character.

I thought the same every time there was a close up of him and I noticed his teeth. I notice his teeth a lot, it's so ugly. It would have been distracting even if he had been cast as a poor character, but cast as a trust fund kid? Simply POOR CASTING!!! It really bugs me.

Not only is Nick's teeth crooked, it's yellow.

Nothing about him says trust fund baby to me. I could believe Sam’s new boyfriend was a trust fund kid more easily than this guy

Really? What is up with them cancelling everything recently? So disappointing.

I do suspect that the people who love this show all went to boarding school and/or an Ivy or New England SLAC. The friend group dynamics just feel so deeply rooted in that particular culture. (Which makes sense, since the creators were boarding school kids and Ivy students too.)

Exactly what I was thinking! And what's bugging me is that both the couples seem to really love and *like* one another. Why would they be having an affair? They're each clearly smitten with their spouses. It just doesn't seem like something that would really happen.

I've laughed out loud at several moments, but not consistently.
