Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
gmaland-64672 I find this show to have some of the most unique and interesting writing I've seen anywhere. I don't know how the scripts were developed, but my sense is that the actors were improvising and the scripts evolved out of that. It's hard to believe that all this could have come from the minds of one or two people, unless they are geniuses. I can't think of anything else I've seen that is so effective at giving the viewer a sense of truly being a "fly on the wall", getting actual glimpses of the lives real people live. Often, the scenes are utterly unpredictable, and the situations are hilarious, in a fresh, unforced way that doesn't feel "written" at all. It's really something special. A very intelligent show.
dasoccerbeast9 Cool story, great show, the people are great and the cast is amazing. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
smatthew24 This show far exceeded my expectations. I came into it, not knowing about the web series. As an avid smoker, the premise was enough for me to give it a shot. By the end of the first episode I was hooked. The way they go episode to episode with new characters, and the depth of each story is just perfect. It's amazing, in a way. Each episode is different. Different characters, different background, colors, life choices .. yet .. I find myself connecting to each of them, and with this connection not only do I see them, but I also begin to see myself.
grantss A series of short stories on the lives of everyday people living in New York. All the stories have one character in common - a pot dealer known simply as "the guy".Wonderfully quirky and engaging series of vignettes. A great mix of drama and comedy. The short stories, of which there are one or two each episode, suck you in with likable characters in interesting situations. From there it is a leisurely ride to a great punch- line. Writer-director-creators (and husband and wife) Katja Blichfield and Ben Sinclair do a great job at keeping the stories simple, yet profound, and the characters relatable. Sinclair also stars as The Guy, and does so very well, coming across as an entrepreneurial version of The Dude in The Big Lebowski.My favourite episode: S1 E3, where the dog falls in love with his walker. You actually feel you are seeing the world from the dog's eyes, and it's a wonderful experience. (Incidentally, the walker is played by Yael Stone, of Orange Is The New Black fame).
