Master Mold

The show starts off great; the 1st half of season 1 is funny and lighthearted, and focuses on therapist Jimmy who, in spite of going through a depression, is bubbling over with positivity. Each of the characters introduced in the show are quirky and interesting. Jimmy uses an unorthodox real world therapy approach with patients that is unethical but fun. Unfortunately, the 2nd half of season 1 gets bogged down with dick jokes and sex dialogue that ranges from inappropriate to quite disgusting. Gaby's character especially, really overdoes it. And the way that the adults talk about sex around or with Jimmy's 17 yr old daughter Alice is inappropriate. It is a really unfortunate distraction from an otherwise good show. They also get away from working with patients, which really is the premise of the show. I felt I was just grinding through the last episodes.

Robert Jordan's book series was amazing but this show is one of the worst book adaptations I have ever seen. Definitely not written/run by fans or the show would feel much different. They altered the plot and characters until they are unrecognizable (only Rosamund Pike feels like her character from the books). Loial is supposed to be 10 feet tall with a black furry mane resembling a trolloc, and instead he is a 5'10 guy with a yellow fro and weird sausage fingers, hah what a joke - take a look at the work GoT put into creating the giants and you will shake your head at the difference in effort. They even left out the 3 most important encounters in the 1st book, the green man and 2 of the forsaken. What this comes down to is arrogance: the arrogance to think that hack staff writers could do a better job writing the story than Jordan. The entire show has only 1 scene that measures up to GoT quality and they had 3 times the budget - the pregnant aiel woman battling on the slopes of dragonmount.
