Season 1 Review:
It’s hard not to say that Netflix has another Nobody Wants This, albeit a quirkier and more unconventional one, on their hands. Thanks to Stalter and Dunham, Too Much is a winning comedy that will remind you to adjust your expectations for finding a match, but keep your heart open.

Season 1 Review:
“Too Much” doesn’t entirely abandon Dunham’s impulse to make her lead character an extension of herself, and if you’re not a fan of hers, this may be a barrier to entry. In this case, it should not be, and I say this as someone who doesn’t particularly like Lena Dunham for a variety of reasons. .... Dunham’s smartest move was choosing Stalter to be this comedy’s voice.

Season 1 Review:
When Jess and Felix spend all night watching movies and talking about themselves, it gives Dunham a chance to do some of her finest writing: funny, natural, a touch too honest and deceptively intimate. And there’s real heat here thanks to Stalter and Sharpe’s chemistry.

Season 1 Review:
The emotional core of Too Much, two people trying to connect in their 30s with the weight of past hurt heavy on their shoulders, is moving and messy and compelling. And it’s done well enough that, by the end, I had almost forgiven the fact that the Brits-vs.-Americans shtick was, for me, too much. Too Much works best when it’s not emulating the fish-out-of-water approach of Emily in Paris. Let it just be, and we may just have our long-awaited successor to Girls.

Season 1 Review:
She excels at short-form storytelling. The smaller the unit, the sparklier her writing gets. Her episodes are plays. Taken scene by scene, her writing is even better: rangy and unexpected, and filled with the surprise pleasures her creative anarchy — the more detached it is from the pressures of plot — makes possible. That remains true here, even when her longer arcs deliver more predictable (or conventional, or simply less satisfying) fare.

Season 1 Review:
The pacing isn’t always smooth, and a few character arcs lose their tether to the Earth, but Dunham delivers enough salient insights about self-acceptance and sharp jokes about, well, everything to elevate her third TV series above many of the medium’s typical love stories.

Season 1 Review:
The more I’ve come back to the show, the more its slack, unromantic approach to love looks intentional. Jess and Felix couple up not because they’re giddy with feeling, drunk on proximity and intimacy and connection, but because each offers something specific that the other person needs. .... In the place where the show’s heart should be is instead pure pragmatism: This is love for a cold climate.
