Christina Applegate is one of the funniest actresses out there with superb comic timing. You can tell that early on from her "Married with Children" days. Attaching her to this project is a smart move to lure audiences to season 1, and oh season 1 delivers. It offers a unique, captivating plot in the backdrop of comedy with Applegate leading the way. Season 2 does not quite measure up to the quality as we see plot lines meandering a bit, but it is still watchable and decent. Season 3 does not come out until two and a half years later, plagued by COVID restrictions and Applegate's heartbreaking health issues. It is still great to see Applegate in action doing what she does best, however I find the season 3 "sitcom conflicts" too basic, resembling those flagship misunderstandings in "Three's Company" and shows like that. Needless to say I am disappointed by the abrupt ending and the lost opportunity to redeem things in a season 4.
