So much to love in this endearingly vulnerable and surprisingly funny portrait of grief and reckoning. There's a raw and unguarded quality to both the writing and performances that draws the viewer in, and has you rooting for the emotional growth and personal connections of its characters, who's relationships and understanding of each other are far more complex than they first seem. The pilot's final twist gives ample runway for delving deep into some unexpected perspectives on the porn industry, queer experience and journey to making peace with aging parents. Based on the pilot, I expected all these themes will continue to be handled with candor, humor and grace, and overall, I'm really excited to see how the rest of this series unfolds!
