This show delights in throwing out what seems like evidence of a specific situation, then walking it back through repetition from different perspectives. Unfortunately, the repetition isn’t worth the new knowledge. So you spend a lot of time reliving things you already know, just to gain one more tidbit.

Not sure why the lead couple went from cute to no longer appreciating each other. Just because they couldn’t have a kid and had only each other? That seems odd.

i haven’t finished ep 5, yet, but the solution obvious in ep 2 seems likely. Will update.

UPDATE: That was a senseless ending. How does a baby change anything meaningful? It makes more sense to have the two Miles’ divide and conquer, with one being a star at work and the other writing a successful play. The comedy could come from how they work out the marriage, and the drama could come from the FDA agents and the two spa guys showing up just when the world thinks Miles somehow has it all. Maybe the show will still get there, but the baby ending should have been a footnote.
