it was good in some aspects, overall it starting feel typical even with it's absurdities.
Not a lot of laugh of loud moments, and sometimes the show didn't feel believable because Josh is constantly striking out in a overly depressing manner. I do enjoy dark humor, but it doesn't have to rigidly follow that profile at every turn. The twist is the absurd scenarios in each episode but are they effective at all? Hardly.
I really wanted to love this show, but even after watching all through it's 1st season it just isn't a well-rounded or even extremely entertaining show. I would be surprised if it got picked up for a 2nd season.
Aside from how I feel, I think they made a poor choice putting yet another comedy show airing on Wednesday nights, they could've picked a better day for ratings. A lot of people I talked to hadn't even seen the show because they're watching Workaholics and Broad City at the same air time.

I hope it sticks around, as there were some funny moments, eg. War room re: text ("traib" "j/k") and Tanaka! The "explanation" as to why a hot girl would date such a loser was also funny. The reverse-episode, where brother and sister switch (Woman seeking Man) was poignant.
The show is fun, but not mindless fun.
