Netflix's new comedy has a shocking Rotten Tomatoes score - but it made me laugh

Lizze Broadway as Shirley, Jillian Bell as Kate, Amy Schumer as Lainy, Brianne Howey as Megan and Urzila Carlson as Fallon in Kinda Pregnant.

When I watched the trailer for new Netflix comedy, Kinda Pregnant, I couldn't wait to watch it. With Amy Schumer in the lead role, I thought this was going to be a fun comedy that couldn't go wrong. But, while that most definitely wasn't the case, I think its 17% score on Rotten Tomatoes is unfair.

If you are unfamiliar with the story, the movie follows teacher Lainy Newton, who finds herself single again in her 40s. And while Lainy's dreams of getting married and having a family are in tatters, her married childhood best friend, Kate, announces that she is pregnant and she can't help but feel jealous.
