A brief moment of enjoyment that didn't linger

This one left me with a profound feeling of "Yup, that sure was a show I watched!"
It's one of the lightest, easiest to watch dramas out there and I'm sure many people will, understandably, love it for that.
The writing is solid, the actors deliver fun and believable performances, and the visuals and editing work well.
And that's about it.
The main leads have an engaging and enjoyable dynamic which leads them approximately nowhere.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good "nothing really happens" story and slow, quiet explorations of life and what it means to be human delight me like nothing else, but that's not what this show gave me.
There is such a profound lack of plot, such a wealth of characters doing nothing more than vaguely existing together that after each episode I just found myself asking "Okay, and?"

So if you're in the market for a show that's nice to look at and will certainly help you while away some 80 odd minutes, this one will deliver. If you're looking for something more you probably won't find it here.
