Review: Lena Dunham's New Show Is a Rom-Com for the TikTok Era

Lena Dunham's new Netflix series Too Much is a meandering, if still highly watchable, rom-com. The show chronicles 30-something Jessica, who relocates to London after a devastating breakup. The frumpy, chaotic Jessica almost immediately falls in love with a handsome indie musician named Felix with a predictably troubled past.

Fans of her 2010s HBO hit Girls will recognize Dunham's tics: oblivious, obnoxious, oversharing characters who are constantly embarrassing themselves. Dunham herself plays Jessica's depressed sister who has recently separated from her husband (Andrew Rannells, who played Dunham's gay ex-boyfriend in Girls).
