      Nadine C Really enjoyed the first few episodes but, like Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/25/22 Full Review Audience Member Wow! This show was amazing! Dark comedy. Well written, acting was great! The plot was awesome. Go watch it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review mark j I was surprised at how good this show was. Did not see any trailers or knew anything about the series beforehand but I am glad I watched it. Even though each episode is only 8 minute long, they blend well together. Looking forward to season 2. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I really liked this show. It's a dark comedy, with some depth. I couldn't figure out why the episodes were so short or why all of these great actors agreed to the show, then I learned it was made for Quibi. They had money and there gimmick was mini episodes. It's a quality show. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
