    Last season, we saw Rebecca moved into town and changed everyone's life. This season, the people around her are waking up and trying to make positive changes to their life, whilst Rebecca is still stuck in her love problems.

    This show reminds me of Flight of the Conchords. What sets this apart from FOTC, though, is that the dialogue between characters is as funny as the songs and the storyline is stronger, whereas in FOTC the bits in between the songs just felt like filler to set up the next song. Sure, maybe females will get more mileage from the show and relate more to Rebecca, but funny is funny.

    'Crazy Ex-Girlfriend' is probably the most underrated show on television right now. It's amazingly well-acted, tremendously funny and creative, leaving us 'adorably obsessed' by it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Improved on the first season. While the first season mainly focused on Rebecca's pursuit Josh, this season took the wiser choice going down differing paths creating more varied content.

    Unfortunately, Greg, one of the best characters leaves after only a few episodes. His absence is felt and the new guy who replace him works, but can't compare.

    Valencia becomes a main character this season and I love it. Last season, she was wasted as the mean competition. This season she's fully utilized and works great with Rachel. Nice to they toned down Donna's manic blind-sightedness.

    The show is still very funny, not as many songs that land, but the ones that do are great. The recurring cast at Rachel's office is expanded upon to great effect. Most importantly, the show goes to greater efforts to break down rom-com stereotypes looking Rachel's expectations through a blend of humor, horror, and sympathy.    … Expand

    Amazing, comedically perfected and underrated. Best show I've seen and the most feminist and inclusive show out there. Can't wait until season three and four in the upcoming falls.

    One of my favourite shows of all time. Focused funny and human. Honestly unique with it's musical segments and wacky characters. The way it treats it's characters is humane.

    The whole thing comes wrapped in music: a couple of typically clever original numbers, and incidental touches such as a novel use for Scott Joplin’s ragtime touchstone “The Entertainer.” Even the show’s theme song undergoes a re-think; as Rebecca explains, it’s “an emotional thesis statement for myself.” It’s this kind of self-consciousness--tart and pointed, yet not excessively vain--that gives Crazy Ex-Girlfriend its lift.

    There are times when things feel just a little off. Perhaps because of pressure to meet the high expectations set by season one or just some minor challenges finding its footing in season two, the writing occasionally comes across as forced, especially with regard to the Rebecca-Josh-Greg triangle.
