This is hands down an amazing series and in my opinion one of the best series of all time. Not top or number one, but it definitely deserves a spot on the list. It ranks! And the ending was so satisfying. A lot of series we love ended horribly. Not this one! I laughed, I cried, I fell in love with the characters and I hate to see this story end.
Great writing. Great acting. The only bad acting came from Kendrick Sampson (he is a terrible actor!) and the star of the show was Issa's hair! I loved how she showed natural women they can have beautiful, versatile styles.
Some reviews are complaining about sex scenes and a lot of stuff that y'all don't complain about with other series. Oh it's a problem on this show? I wonder why. Keep the selective outrage. This is an AMAZING show and Issa is a genius. I can't wait to see what the future holds for her.

Issa Rae has done a wonderful job writing and playing the lead character in "Insecure." I think this is a very well-written show with an engaging ensemble cast. The characters feel real and relatable, even though they are all much younger and hipper than me! I am 48 and live on the opposite coast, yet I felt that I had experienced many of the same things that Issa, Molly and their friends have in this series: the confusing romantic and sexual connections, the frustrating career experiences, the self-doubt and, most importantly, the benefit of good friendships. I caught "Insecure" one night on HBO and was instantly engaged. It's entertaining and stylishly produced as well. I really like the way the show has expanded to explore Molly's and Lawrence's characters in depth along with Issa's complex experiences and character development.
Confession: I struggled to get through a couple of seasons of HBO's "Girls" because it was always being praised in the media, and I hated it. "Insecure" is vastly superior. I can't wait for the new season.

My daughter introduced "Insecure" to me when it first premiered, but I wasn't feeling it at all. I've been married now close to 30 years and didn't think it was relevant to my 50+ age. However, she was on her 2nd round of re-watching this year and since it was the Christmas holidays, I said why not? Well, I binged the entire series over the weekend and fell in love with all of the characters and the scenarios were absolutely hilarious!
The characters/actors had mad chemistry. Yes, I've had friends 40+ years and throughout the years, we have experienced the breakdown in communication, not speaking, interest/conversation/viewpoint changes, etc., but at the end of the day, we're down for each other. My only constructive feedback is the use of the N word and the explicit sex scenes ( could have left some to the imagination, we get it ). Otherwise, no matter the age this show is relatable and so you know, it's not much different from the 80s/90s scene.

As a white male senior citizen I'm not the target demographic but I enjoy the show. Assuming the depictions are relatively accurate the writing, casting, music are very good. The talent on display impressed the heck out of me.
"Insecure' is exactly what the title means a show full of insignificant or irrelevant relationships or lack of finding a true love. This acting is getting boring because the typical everyday life of both women Issa and Molly. No way this show speaks on behalf of all black women because it seems to be an atypical versus untypical show. In other words, the show just appears to go in circles. I keep trying to get into the show even reviewing Episodes from Season One and newest scenes from Season Two but nothing has changed. Its the same scenes like going to night clubs, brunch, or stalking an ex-boyfriend's girlfriend. For Season Two, it seems that the producers changed the scene to display a bar-b-que, but please create something that is uncommon. Soo far it's the same scenario a black woman is still roaming around searching for Mr. Right being Issa and Molly still is an executive. It would be nice if this show could advance on opening doors for other characters like new neighbors. I will watch the new episode that airs Sunday.
