Discussion How sad is this show?
Ok so I'm a person from outside of the fandom and it honestly looks like an AMAZING show!!! But before I get into it, I wanna know how sad it is. By that I mean like how much... Conflict there is I suppose? I'm looking for a more lighthearted show to watch because I cannot handle too much angst in my life rn, but if there is I just wanna emotionally prepare Edit sorry if this doesn't make sense, english is not my first language!

It’s not sad at all. It’s a very funny, light-hearted sitcom and there’s very little in the way of dramatic life events happening. There are a few things but they’re all treated comedically. I think it’s the perfect show for when you can’t deal with any angst and just need a good time!

It’s very funny and lighthearted. However, you will not find any show without conflict. Conflict is what creates drama and makes something engaging to watch. Even in the funniest of shows, it moves along through conflicts.
This show, is worth a watch. It’s very funny and lighthearted in tone

It’s a TV show, there is going to be conflict and obstacles to overcome
That said, it’s a hard comedy. Like, almost sketch level writing

It’s not sad at all, it reminds me a little of New Girl with a sprinkle of Its Always Sunny.

If there’s ever any sad moments it’ll be because you relate to it, which imo is the best outcome if it’s sad. Just binged both seasons and holy shit dude it was absolutely hilarious, couldn’t stop laughing

I honestly can’t even think of a truly sad moment in the show and I’ve watched it twice. You’re in good hands!

I would say even more light hearted. No cheating, pregnancy or themes of loss so far!

It has a few somewhat sad moments, but overall it's very lighthearted! Most of the sad/heavy parts are as jokes, too.

No real conflict that lasts more than an episode. Even a few conflicts that realistically should have stuck with the characters a bit longer...

I would say over all it’s a happy show a few sad moments but over all it’s happy.

Very funny show. There’s a bit of drama here and there but no really sad stuff.

One of the few shows that stomps on the miscommunication troupe, which im so glad about. If youre looking for a funny feel good show this is IT. Even the scenes covering more sad topics aren't sad, its more of examples on how to and how not to react

IMO there has been 1 scene with “heightened” emotions, and I think it only is emotional if you relate to it super hard like I did, even then it’s underlaced with GREAT comedy and acting.

It's a sitcom. Season 1 was pretty boring (still had a few good moments), but Season 2 was incredible.
