As the days grow shorter and cooler, there’s nothing quite like immersing yourself in a captivating series. Just last weekend, while preparing for the week, I received a text from my sister urging me to drop everything and start watching Modern Love on Amazon. I filed that recommendation in the back of my mind, intending to check it out later.
However, my resolve crumbled just a few hours later when a friend reached out, inquiring if I had seen it yet. Clearly, the buzz around this series warranted my attention. I owed it to my circle to find out what all the excitement was about.
Diving into the first few episodes, I quickly found myself engrossed, reluctant for it to end. After binging the entire eight-episode season with my three teenagers—who humorously remarked, “This is weird but I like it”—I was undeniably changed. Based on real-life essays from the New York Times column of the same name, Modern Love delivers heartfelt and poignant stories that are both raw and engaging. Fair warning: have tissues handy; you’ll need them for every episode.
The series boasts a remarkable cast, including Anne Hathaway, Dev Patel, and Tina Fey, with a memorable cameo from Ed Sheeran. Each installment presents a unique exploration of love, showcasing its various phases, complexities, and challenges. However, a notable critique arises regarding the portrayal of interracial relationships, as each one includes a white character. It’s an important point to consider, and I hope the producers heed this feedback for the upcoming Season 2.
What struck me most was how relatable these stories are, reflecting the myriad relationships many of us navigate in our lives. Whether you’ve faced struggles in marriage or mourned a lost love, the series resonates deeply with anyone who has ever loved. It’s a testament to our universal longing for connection, addressing intricate themes like marriage counseling and the challenges of mental health.
If you haven’t ventured into Modern Love yet, I encourage you to watch just one episode. I dare you to resist the urge to binge-watch the rest. Meanwhile, I find myself eagerly anticipating more episodes from Amazon and Modern Love.
