About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, character-driven sitcom about second chances and messy friendships, with a mix of heart and snark; Not for you if you need nonstop laughs or long-running arcs like Gilmore Girls.
Pros: unusual amnesia premise; charming lead performance; quotable one-liners | Cons: uneven early episodes; laughs can be sparse; premise runs thin
