It would have been easy for Overcompensating to tread too closely to cringeworthy or tired territory, working too hard to appeal to its Gen Z audience, and failing to say anything meaningful. Fortunately, my biggest complaint about Overcompensating is that it was over too quickly.
-
Overcompensating and Adults take divergent approaches to the Gen Z sitcom. Both play on coming-of-age tropes, but Overcompensating feels more old-fashioned in its coming-out storyline and earnestness about being true to oneself.
-
It’s simultaneously too self-serious to be a strict comedy and too surface-level to contain any great dramatic heft. What we’re left with, ultimately, is a show that is as confused as its repressed protagonist.
