Reviews

parsleysage-24717 I gave this show the benefit of the doubt for the first few episodes to see if it would find its footing. Not a chance. This show is terrible! It's all that's wrong with TV programming these days.I realize it's not supposed to be plot driven (there isn't any) so one would hope the character focus would be enough. That didn't happen. Who cares about a group of 20- something friends who are completely self-absorbed, narcissistic, lacking in heart and soul, and who spend their seemingly copious amounts of free time just hanging out and talking ad nauseum about random things in order to appear all edgy and cool? I know it aspires to be all intellectual and trippy, but it's just so self-aware and superficial. The only character I could bare to watch for brief moments was William. The musician guy is particularly awful. I doubt I could bring myself to watch another episode, never mind season.

sashagrove OK I'm a little surprised at the negative reaction this show gets on here. Yes, the comedy is VERY dry, and I guess a lot of people don't get that, but I think that's part of what makes it so brilliant. I've had to re-watch some of the episodes because it all whizzes by pretty quick, but I pick up something new every time, and I love shows that do stuff like that.I have to admit that I was expecting something totally different from the description, basically another angsty 20somethings sitcom, but this show is so much more than that, kind of like a Chekhovian satire. Approach with an open mind.

Killrover I was very tempted by the commercials and tried a few episodes - no longer. It seems like 2 couples dealing with 20-something angst issues.. and then throws junk in. One character talks about her sexual dysfunction and then goes into a monologue like a German torch song S&M montage; another time a cocktail party has an actor actually blow up the moon. A real history of abuse? A dream sequence? After 30 minutes of this, you don't care and there's no resolution anyways. The surreal bits seem like they intrude on what MIGHT be a interesting relationship show. I confess - I watch anything with Michelle Mylett in it but no longer. And I'm sure that Maslany's character of Bondurant Smit would be entertaining in a high school play but is so over-the-top here he's a complete turn-off. The others just seem along for the ride. It's sad because I'm sure other young script writers would have killed for the chance to do a show and be good at it.

iminloveithink I want to love CBC shows, I do. Granted some are decent, some are amazing and some are meh. Four in the Morning started off meh but with the second episode could have the trajectory of decent -- Worth a Watch. The main issue of this show is that the dialogue trumps characters. The characters are merely vessels for snappy, witty, introspective however sometimes pretentious, sometimes "that dude that tells you his clothes are from banana republic" dialogue. When the characters are merely used to make interesting points about life, rather than living breathing people in their own right, it can be hard to engage. You may find the characters off-putting at first...but give it a chance.There are some really interesting concepts and relatable snippets in life in this show. Episode 1 had one when two male characters are in awe of an empty Massey Hall, standing on the stage to a grand empty audience. In episode 2 the side characters out shined the main characters. The concept of Day Kids was original and almost poignant at times though sometimes the need to insert witty dialogue pulled away. Still, so far these moments make it worth it. I'm hoping it becomes a show finding its groove and I'll be hoping to be filled with its surprises.
