Two estranged former best friends meet up again and rekindle their friendship. The plot is simple but what makes it work is the chemistry between Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne - basically if you enjoyed their work in the Neighbor's movies then you will have a pleasant time here. Sure the humor is crude, but that's what makes it stand out from the countless bland sitcoms that currently populate the TV landscape. The first three episodes that launched today are super relaxing and a perfect way to kick your feet up after a long day at work! The only complaint would be that the supporting characters don't really have much of a voice at the moment and I suppose that's perfectly fine as the main focus is on the dynamic between the two leads. It would be super cool if the characters do live up to the title of the show and remain strictly platonic because to be honest there are hardly any shows, comedy or otherwise that feature strong male/female friendships. So yeah, if the humor of the Neighbor's movies are your bag (bonus being this is by the same director of those movies), then stream with confidence.
