Happy Endings

Something I really enjoy binging on Netflix is comedies. How I Met Your Mother, Friends, Better off Ted, all great shows in my opinion. Another that might be a little less known to some people is Happy Endings.
Focused on the lives of six people in a variety of social dynamics (2 are married, 2 are ex's, 1 is hopelessly single, and 1 is all about hookups), the show quickly establishes each character's relationship with the rest of the group.

Max's mind is a strange place
The comedy is great, with bits of different genres to appeal to many people. There's slapstick, sexual humour, wit, dry humour, sarcasm, and just flat out oddball moments. While each episode is part of the larger story, each one stands alone fairly well (If you are watching it with someone and they cheat an episode or two, you won't be totally lost).

"Bring the guns out!"
With the various personalities of the characters, there's sure to be someone that you'll enjoy watching. The situations the group gets involved in are hilariously outrageous, but you often know "those people" in real life who would totally do stuff like that. The couple who's way to comfortable getting it on with people around, the guy who never listens and is off in his own world, the girl who NEVER understands what's going on. Everybody has friends that act like that, in one way or another. Come on, if you pranked a friend by putting stripper glitter into their body lotion, do you honestly think they wouldn't try putting on a show, just once?


Happy Endings is a great, lighthearted show to watch. It's well worth having a Netflix account, and worth re-watching with people familiar with it or newbies alike.

Toodles!
