A series full of strange things and volatile romantic relationships. Events begin in the life of Josh and Mike and they have a wild night outside. Josh goes too far to avoid Mod. A beautiful woman expressing her interest in Josh. It can be a miracle or anything else altogether. Josh quickly determines that his new girlfriend is great for him.
By episode two, the show's surreal depiction of one guy's love life begins to settle in and feel more, well, not exactly normal, but at least expected. And that understanding makes it easier to laugh at what's happening in this bizarre comedy.
If you haven't figured this out yet, Man Seeking Woman is plenty weird. But it's also wild, wily, and, depending on your taste for high-risk jokes that don't always fly, wonderful.
It's not clear whether Josh Greenberg, the lead character in Man Seeking Woman, will find his true love by the end of the show's first season. What is clear, however, is that it's easy to fall in love with this absurd FXX comedy.
Some if not a majority of Man Seeking Woman is forced and juvenile. And the closing Hitler-Maggie scene in Episode 1 might well repulse those viewers who have stuck around for that long.
Man Seeking Woman too often reminds one of that guy at the bar who is better at the joke set-up than the punchline because it takes SO long to get to it.
