I enjoyed this series but cringed every time Will Forte speaks. In broad US comedies, this whiny voice suits the low comedy. Here, in this finely-shot comedic drama, his whines become overbearingly obnoxious. Every word, every sentence he utters, is a whine. I realized he cannot talk any other way. It's a bit of miscasting that ruins this otherwise fine show.
The other actors are fine and the direction is tight and imaginative. The script is also above average. The technical aspects are admirable. But, in the end, I couldn't stomach Will Forte without muting when he talked, relying on subtitles.
