Friends From College

Nutshell: Good time killer.  Great cast.  BingeableAF. A little drama but hilarious.  Fred Savage is the man.  Under 30 minute episodes.  2 Seasons.  Good for everyone. Cancelled by Netflix (unfortunate)

This show took me totally by surprise.  It’s hard for me to explain why because with Keegan-Michael Key and Cobie Smulders as two of the the leads, I should have expected it to be funny.  I guess what I didn’t expect was how much I would die for Fred Savage.  That guy stole the show and helped keep it light through (for lack of a better word) a pretty fucked up friend situation.

The second season premiered in January 2019, and was apparently cancelled by Netflix shortly after in February.  I just found that out as I was writing this article, and I have to say it’s disappointing.  It leaves you hanging.  Uncool.  However the journey is still worth taking.  The ensemble of the characters are enough to carry you through the drama.

The first two seasons are a great binge when you’re looking for something light.  These days with Game of Thrones and The Handmaid’s Tale- we can all agree that light can be good.

Happy binging!
