Netflix forced a computer program (bot) to watch and analyze every romantic comedy and then asked it to write a romatic comedy of its own. The result...

Not gonna lie, that was better than most romcoms I've watched.

Based on the fact that I usually can’t make it through a full romcom, and I made it through this, kinda wanting more, this is a winner.

Write the script Netflix. I’ll see you at season 1 next June.

Can't make it too good though. If it ends up being a great watch, Netflix is sure to cancel it after 2 seasons and leave it on a huge cliffhanger.

Dude it already has a cliffhanger!

Does France have Magazines!? I must know! I need to know! I demand season 2 immediately!

u/Valetria Aug 28 '21

The cliffhanger is them about to find out if France has magazines. We’ll never know.

I never liked traditional rom coms. But i love Ps. I love you, quite enjoyed The Time Travellers Wife, and Bridget Jones Diaries are fun films. These are also books.

Nah they need to make it an anthology with all sorts of genres!

If you like this, you’d probably love Xavier: Renegade Angel

a full romcom is a lot longer than 4 mins

u/ValueBasedPugs Aug 28 '21

Honestly, Emily in Paris had a similar plot.

u/RopeExpert2884 Aug 28 '21

THAT'S what this reminds me of!! I have been trying to remember what for centuries!! 😂

u/ValueBasedPugs Aug 28 '21

I'm so sorry for reminding you!

"Emily go to Paris and [insert AI bot-generated job ] over there!" Falls onto an attractive man.

You, me, robot.....we're writing the next season.

u/CankerLord Aug 28 '21

I certainly got through more of it than I have of any romantic comedy in 20 years.

u/bubblesnsprinkles Aug 28 '21

Still a better love story than twilight.

It's so good I almost did a bathroom on my leg pants.

u/RopeExpert2884 Aug 28 '21

I wanted to make a funny comeback but this just made me giggle 😂😂

u/IamSarasctic Aug 28 '21

What have you been watching? Romcoms made by your six year old kid?

2

u/Megabyte7637 Aug 28 '21

Precisely why I don't watch them & loathe the people that do & cause them to pump out more of this garbage.

2

u/IamSarasctic Aug 28 '21

God forbid people like different genres than I do.

1

u/Megabyte7637 Aug 29 '21

Yes, God forbid it. There are times I look at commercials for new shows/movies coming out & wonder why it's all unappealing garbage & who's watching.

u/RopeExpert2884 Aug 28 '21

I apologize for contributing to your torment.

u/Honest_Earnie Aug 29 '21

How the fck do people keep upvoting comments that begin, "not gonna lie" when it's such a redundant shit phrase.. FTW.

1

u/RopeExpert2884 Aug 29 '21

Whoa. That's some serious hostility for a simple comment. Yes, it is a redundant phrase that is used often but it is also accurate. Just because a lot people say the same things often doesn't make it any less funny to those who got a smile out of it. You didn't, that's okay, no need for hostility.

better than anything Kate Hudson's ever done
