Too Much: Staffel 1

Fans of Lena Dunham's breakout series Girls will be unsurprised that Dunham is still mining her personal life for comic gold, with sparkling results.

...Dunham’s latest pulls off a tricky balancing act: giving audiences what we expect from a TV rom-com, as well as what we don’t always get.

...certainly offers some chuckles and heartwarming moments, but getting the most out of it will require a genuine affinity with Dunham's voice and a considerable tolerance for utter nonsense.

Megan Stalter’s performance is the highlight, along with Jessica’s family dynamic and the quieter scenes.

Jessica and Felix rebel against the norm by finding a complicated and messy love within each other. By the end of the series, you can’t help but ask yourself if you’ll ever be lucky enough to find the same. 

More than anything, Dunham and Felber know that no matter how ridiculous life can get and no matter how frustrating people can be, everything comes back to the beauty of human connection.
