Ok this is just my personal view and we are all entitled to our personal views, good or bad.
The character Darcy is a piece of work. And I don't mean that in a good way. It must be emotionally exhausting being around her. And to imagine waking up to her and the same day every day, shiver.
I thought it was the height of irony that she has a sign hanging on her door "Be Grateful, Give Thanks." It must be in a foreign language for her. Her demands on everything being perfect is absurd. The instructions on the cheese she wanted, how she critised her own mum about the pie she bakes and then the pie she buys - I really hope that unless her character changes (and it did by the end), she doesn't have any kids. Her kids will need therapy all their adult life!
So, as far as the show goes, I don't think many of us are rooting for her to find a wonderful guy coz we (people like me) don't really like her until about the last 4 minutes of the show.
She is so absurd that she needed Brandon to literally disappear into a black hole in the wall to get her to think deeper because it takes quite a mental person to think that living the same day over and over again is great. By the second day, a rational person should kinda get with the plot that they are not in a good place and this is not a good thing happening.
And what on earth, Tom had the most amazing nonsense Irish accent. I feel like the producers of the show should apologise to Ireland.
And I don't know if it is poor acting or really brilliant acting on the part of the actor playing Tom because he is completely and utterly convincing as a zombie. Watching him is more boring than watching paint dry. I kept hoping it would rain because then it would dissolve his cardboard personality. Darcy must have hit her head really hard to ever think he is "perfect." He is perfectly one dimensional with a perfectly fake accent he tries to accomplish by talking as if he has marbles in his mouth.
The one very nice moment though is when Brandon warmed Darcy's feet. That was very sweet.
But for a RomCom, we hardly see Darcy with Brandon together and interacting so their love story is not built up properly and therefore not believable to the viewer.
