A GREAT NEW SHOW FINALLY GIVES SETH ROGEN AND ROSE BYRNE THEIR OWN ROM COM
A great new show finally gives Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne their own rom com
The idea that romantic comedy is a genre in decline is at least as old as Harry and Sally. the film credited in both the first and last episodes of the new Apple TV series Platonic. The Conflict on the show instead hinges on the two finding a new place in the world with each others help.Who will she become now that the youngest of her three children is in full time school?How will he recover from a bad divorce and figure out how to turn his passion for brewing beer into a viable business? Would the presence of a queer couple shake this shows premise about whether opposite sex friendships can remain chaste? And if so. would that be on a show about turning the conventions of romantic comedy on their head. isnt it a good thing?
