There’s nothing quite like diving into a captivating series, especially as the days grow shorter and the cozy blankets start calling your name. Just last weekend, while I was getting ready for the week ahead, I received a message from my friend Mia urging me to drop everything and check out “Modern Love” on Amazon. I tucked that recommendation away for later, thinking I’d get to it when I could.
But a few hours later, while enjoying some delicious meatballs, I got another nudge from an old buddy asking if I had seen “Modern Love” yet. With the buzz surrounding the show, I figured it was time to discover what all the excitement was about—after all, I owed it to my pals to give it a shot.
Before long, I was completely absorbed in the first few episodes and found myself wishing it would never end. And judging by the chatter on social media, it seems I wasn’t alone in my obsession. I binge-watched all eight episodes alongside my three teenagers, who remarked, “This is strange but I really like it.”
Heartfelt Stories and a Star-Studded Cast
Based on actual essays that appeared in the New York Times’ long-running “Modern Love” column, the series is both heartfelt and gripping. Just a heads up: if you decide to tune in, keep a box of tissues handy for each episode. The incredible cast features names like Lily James, Dev Patel, and even a surprise appearance by Ed Sheeran. Each episode unfolds a different love story, exploring the various stages of love, its intricacies, and the challenges it can bring.
A Notable Critique
However, there is a notable critique worth mentioning: every interracial relationship in the show includes a white character. While the series does showcase diversity in its themes and characters, it would be great to see this addressed in future seasons. Speaking of which, news just broke that a Season 2 is on the way—let’s hope the producers take this feedback to heart!
Relatable Narratives
Having experienced the emotional rollercoaster that “Modern Love” offers, I understand why it has resonated with so many viewers. The stories reflect our own experiences, capturing the essence of the relationships we’ve all had. Whether you’ve faced struggles in your marriage or mourned a lost love, the show hits deep.
The universal desire for love makes the characters relatable, and their vulnerabilities remind us that we’re not alone in our feelings. If you haven’t yet watched, do yourself a favor and start with just one episode—you might find it impossible to stop there.
