    The show seems to have raced way past the idea that Annie shouldn’t be solely defined by her weight, and decided that it should no longer be a primary subject at all. Without that, and/or more significant character growth, there’s not a lot to the new season beyond the appeal of the performers.

This is the kind of woman Bill Burr was talking about in his SNL monologue; completely entitled and "shrill." Aidy Bryant, who is fine on SNL (not that I've seen a whole episode since, well, Trump), but outside of that she's annoying. I remember her from Horace and Pete and thought, "wow, this is a masterpiece except for her." I really don't get who this show is for, and I don't think I want to. Anyone who remotely identifies with her character is not someone I want to know.… Full Review »
