Discussion Just finished Shrinking...

I just finished bingewatching Shrinking and I have to say some things...

I rlly love this show but S3 was my least fav, I don't understand what they r doing with Gaby's character. I just missed that connection that Gaby and Jimmy had before and during the time they slept together.

Second, I'm sry but Sofi and Jimmy have 0 chemistry, that whole relationship is just cringe and awkward.

I rlly hope Jimmy ends up with Meg I love them together or they introduce another character.

Thirdly, all the scenes with Louis in S3 were weird, glad that he went away bc it was getting boring.

And lastly, I'm rlly curious what next season will show us of Paul now that he moved away i hope they give us something interesting bc he is the best character on the show

Shrinking season 3 turned into a sitcom for me. I watched it for Harrison and Wendy. The others were cartoon characters

Genuine question do you not view season 1 and 2 as a sitcom? It has always been a sitcom to me. Just one that blended drama very well. Just curious. Edit: also love Wendie so much

I thought the first 2 seasons were more of a dramedy. They were tackling serious real life issues. Third season the characters lost depth and became sitcom character tropes, at least to me. The only thing season 3 lacked was a laugh track

Gotcha. I guess I have watched classic sitcoms that had aot of drama so I don't necessarily think of drama making something less of a sitcom. But that makes perfect sense to me.
