Easy: Season 1


Chalk another one up in the "shit I didn't get to in 2016" column. Netflix, as so often seems to be the case. This is an eight-part anthology series about a bunch of different couples and relationships in modern-day Chicago. You've got the power mom and the stay-at-home dad trying to navigate their gender roles and how that affects their sex lives. You've got the girl trying to impress her new vegan girlfriend by going vegan as well, to terrible results. You've got the couple trying to spice things up by inviting their baby's sing-along group leader over for a threesome.

None of the eight stories depend on the others for any context, save for the last one, which serves as a second part of sorts to the third. Instead you've got a bunch of loose little half-hour stories. They were all over the map for me, some of them total duds and some of them pretty entertaining.

All in all, I can't say there's any real reason to look into this one, but if you do, it's only four hours long. So.
