I watched "Easy" based on two things; the reputation of Netflix and the quote, unquote "star -studded cast". Therefore, I went into the experience thinking good thoughts. Boy was I in for a surprise. Unlike most other Netflix Originals, "Easy" is dry, pointless and humorless. The plot lines are vague, the peoples lives are boring and trite, and the cast members in every episode but one are not stars. They are in fact largely marginal extras with speaking lines at best. Orlando Bloom is the biggest guest star in the whole series unless you count a multiple episode returnees to "Grey's Anatomy " a star or the sideshow brother in a Kristen Wiig film; which I do not. I only enjoyed two of the episodes, which is why they received anything above a "1" from me. Therefore, my "5/10" rating is also generous and this was completely based on how hot Orlando Bloom was in his episode alone. This is easily boring and easily missed.

Some big (familiar) faces advertised gave me a reason to try the series. I enjoyed the first episode and then i was hit or miss from that point forward. Its like a morality play of sorts, very artistic and very expressive, with a wide assortment of differing relationships. The dialogue is above average with a certain amount of plot sufficient for a vignette. The down side is that most every episode seems to be a little depressing in some way. If not for the thought evoking experience i would have taken this off my list. A few episodes really shined for me, and for my least favorite episodes, they did gain appeal on my second viewing. Good job netflix series. I hope there is another season.

Easy to watch. Really good acting. You recognize a lot of things in your own life. It's easy, makes you smile and makes you think about your relationship. And the threesome episode was a surprise on more levels. It's also fun that the episodes are standing by themselves, but that some characters are seen in more episodes. Also, I love that some subjects are still taboo. It makes you think outside the box. Only some parts are a bit boring. You can let it on on the background and do some housework.Nice way to spend your evening. Absolute Netflix and chill ( sometimes even with the " dirty" parts)

The synopsis says this series follows a group of friends through their life experiences in Chicago, sounds fun right? But every episode is about different people and has very little continuity or relation to the last story arc. This show is mostly random. One moment focusing on a couple starting a family, then a lesbian couple (that in no way knows the family), then a narcissist artist (that in no way knows the family or the couple).... I didn't dislike the show, I just don't see the point. I might have even been 'good' if the director and writers had been able to focus on one thing or one subject for more than 1 episode. You cannot have a show like this, one that reflects the lives of 'normal' people, and expect to get good character development in 30 minutes. It just doesn't work well and feels a bit shallow. But again, it was almost enjoyable and I did watch all 8 episodes, so I must not be all bad. To each their own.It's also listed as 'comedy' while in no way was this show funny. It's a realistic drama.
