The writing, look, polish and overall "feel" of this series is very much like Goldman's previous series "the Outs". With several of the same characters (and a walk-on from Goldman himself...they just can't resist) this series is yet another look at relationships as seen from struggling 20-somethings (well...that's how they were written anyway) in NYC. Yes, rent is high, "stuff" is expensive, people are rude...we get it. And unfortunately, the character of "Ari" pretty much sounds like Goldman (whiny, insecure, fem...but his victimhood card is that he's "brown" as opposed to jewish...what a plot twist!!!). Overall, interesting...just not great. Good try, and I do hope the best for all involved.
