LOVE

I like it a lot, though the only scene I'd insist you watch is Episode 4, around the 4:30 mark where Gus' friends perform their jam session for the theme song of Perfect Storm.  Like Master of None*,  Love makes hay with the friend group and the relationship stuff is the right blend of truthful, painful and awkward; on the whole has a very similar balance of humanity and humor.



Gillian is great and Paul Rust--one of my favorite recurring guests on Comedy Bang Bang--is fantastic:


Rust was in a great band with Harris Wittels that you should check out--the songs are funny but performed with a lot of soul.



*Master of None addressed more issues--family, work and race--than Love managed to and I cop to be majorly prejudiced primarily because MoN prepetuated the lie that Father John Misty is a musician anyone should give a shit about.  Honestly, the way that episode kept repeating his name was eerily reminiscent of how the show Nashville named-dropped The Lumineers like a dozen times in one episode.  It smells like lawyers or agents are involved...anyway, my internal ombudsman wanted that clearly stated.
