Tonally, when it works, Married pulls off the neat trick of blending absurdity and ennui into something like profundity, all in a 21-minute episode of television.
Married can only get by on the abilities of its performers for so long. And soon enough, the expectations of what people like Greer, Slate, and Gelman can deliver will surpass the sort of underdeveloped material they're being handed.
Married returns with much the same tediously obsessive attention to sex, or lack thereof, that marked its freshman run, the writing still resistant to both the percussive laugh lines of You're the Worst and the darker comic insights of Louie.
