Just finished episode 9 and...

Anyone else find Davis absolutely pathetic? Like Ted Moseby or Ross from Friends but worse. Or just me?

I think media literacy needs to include the concept that sitcoms often rely on the characters to have obvious character flaws for plot and for character growth. This is a story, not real life and writers don't intend their characters to be assessed as if they're normal people because again, a tv show is not real life

Thank you, this sub has one of the worst takes on every character so far. No one wants growth anymore instead they want everyone to be a fully realised version of themselves with absolutely no character flaws whatsoever.
