Put this off for a bit but was still on my watch list as from the trailer it didn't really seem my kind of thing but having binged the season in one day, it definitely was my thing.

Selena Gomez, Steve Martin and Martin Short work so well together, the seriousness with humour and everything else just seemed to work really really well. IT's got 100% on RT from the critics and 94% from users along with an 8.2 on IMDB. For me it's a 9.10 show.

I liked the idea of it but found it a bit silly/tedious after 3 episodes or so though it looked like it was building towards something more. Some of the podcast side of it doesn't really work for me personally.
 
Randomly watched it the other day as it's got good ratings on IMDB. I was quite surprised though, it's better than it originally sounded and I enjoyed it and looking forward to season 2.

Without saying too much, I enjoyed the silent episode too. Not the first show to do it but they handled it well and great evidence of not needing exposition to move the plot forward.
 
My wife and I have just started watching this and we're already almost through season 1.

We were looking for something else to enjoy after we both loved "The Lincoln Lawyer" and this really seems to work well. It's a very strange and eclectic mix of actors but they seem to work really well together and the age difference just adds to the humour.
 
This is a weird thing to say, but Mabel/Selena Gomez has the best wardrobe from any TV show that I watch. Daniel's wife in Cobra Kai is a close second. They both look amazing in every outfit they wear on their respective shows.

I enjoy it personally but i can see why many people would dislike it.

If you dislike Martin Short then forget about it. He seems to be over acting many of the scenes in my view.
 
Thought it was dreadful personally. Dull and unfunny, watched three episodes and binned it. Each to their own though, it s clearly popular enough.

I really struggled with the first few episodes when it was first released, just nothing really hooked me, people say it gets better but I just can't see it interesting me.
 
Finished Season 4 last week. Really enjoyed it. They really upped the ante this season with the number of celebs/cameos, but it really worked well. Eva Longoria and Zak Galafinakis were hilarious and definitely the highlight.

Martin Short is my least favourite of the trio, but Mabel manages to keep him in check enough. Season 3 was the worst in that respect, as the main story revolved more around him.

Probably my favourite season after season 1.
