Did you love, hate, or love to hate this Jewish rom-com? An agnostic sex-and-relationships podcaster and a charismatic rabbi meet cute at an L.A. dinner party and embark on an ill-advised relationship; will it survive their disparate lifestyles and meddling friends and families? Themes of cultural divides, faith, identity, feminism, love, privacy, and millennial malaise drive the plot; stereotypes and tropes abound. While physical intimacy is largely left off-screen, risque humor and crude jokes abound, earning this a TV-MA rating. Viewers who have finished the 10-episode series will get the most out of the discussion; otherwise, be prepared for spoilers. Starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody.
Stream online in advance on Netflix.
