Made for Love (2021)

Watchseries; I have only seen the first three episodes, but it seems the writers can't quite decide on what the character of their main protagonist is.

It feels like they went around the writers room and each person added something she would do in each scene, but no one looked at the character for consistency. She comes accross as erratic, unlikable, unpredictable, victim them victimizer, sane then crazy - and not a character an audience would root for.

The script was written more for shock value than to tell a cohesive narrative.

Made for Love watchseries. Some people seem to forget this is a dramedy or a dark comedy (however you want to call it) and of course it has some flaws, but you can't expect a super well written Sci-Fi drama, cause it isn't intended to be one.

Great acting by Cristin Milioti, Ray Romano, Billy Magnussen and the rest of the cast. Nice music, nice cinematography.

I give a 10 in order to balance the score cause Made for Love should be an 8 or at least close to it.

Funny. One reviewier said of another's, they probably only watched the 1st episode since they liked the series and they felt the episodes became mind numbing. I couldn't disagree more. I thought the episodes only got better.

This series is very well written - a unique storyline. Great character development. Great acting. AWESOME Soundtrack. Sympbolism is nicely weaved into the story. I can't wait to see more.

I think this is one of the best shows streaming.

The show is just mediocre at best. There's not a single character you can sympathize with (maybe except the dolphin) and the character development occurs rarely if any. The story and plot are superficial. The Acting is tolerable (Kudos to Cristin Milloti and partly Ray Romano) In a nutshell, you won't miss much if you skip this.

3 episodes in, I cannot think of anything negative to say.. The cast is solid, the production solid, the story (get ready) is entertaining, funny, interesting, timely, relevant, well done, well told and, unfortunately in a sense, necessary.

But if you disagree, I'd respect that.

I've seen the first four episodes. My guess is the other reviewer has seen just the first episode. I don't think the pacing is a bit of a problem, but deeply flawed and makes for an unenjoyable experience. Also the show dropping the viewer into the middle of the timeline and going forward and backwards comes as an artificial and compensatory gimmick that makes a mess of the narrative. (that is not a spoiler it is obvious in the first 30 seconds)

The set up is pretty much dystopian rom-com, and it has been done better elsewhere. Really instead of subtle dark humor, the vibe is just generally a drawn out creepiness. This all comes down to bad writing. The acting is quite adequate. Yoeman talent level for TV acting. The lead actress overdoes the quirkily schtick just a bit much, but it looks like that is more bad directing than an acting problem. The dialogue and screenplay are not clever by golden age of TV standards. Not even a sliver or bronze effort. There is an unevenness and a lot of tedious sections. Once gets the sense that the writers take the audience for granted. 4/10.
