This was a great little watch for an evening. The story is a common one yet it's handled with care and also not too in your face
Problem with a lot of shows dealing with someone that comes out is that it usually exists in a fantasy world.
This is the first show I've seen where the straight guy is Indeed actually straight. Crazy right?! Not only do they don't make the coming out scene a big deal, they also deal with manic depression in men And thankfully they don't have a drunken encounter either or the experiment cliche where they hook up and then separate.
Mens mental health is severely neglected and shamed throughout society. . we need help sometimes. We feel alone sometimes, need to cry. Ect It's great to see this. It's also great to not be lectured by characters. Just real dialogue and banter.
Sure it's the usual clever stuff we hear. But non the less I loved it.
The two leads have such great chemistry. Tbh I did feel the cast was slightly bloated for a short ep series and frankly we didn't need the college campus funny lady. Was just too much.
I also wanted more scenes with just the two guys. Why did the mother need to insert herself into everything? Def could use some boundaries imo haha, lord give your son some space.
Again the show touches Upon how guys have such trouble opening up, and being close. Platonic friendships between men can be limited sometimes. But it's good when you find that one who will accept you. Give you comfort and a place to speak up.
I really recommend this.
