Jan 24, 2022I just finished Season 1 on hbomax (late to the game as it is Jan 2022). I am blown away, impressed, intrigued. "I'm in this!" @Issa Rae: genius!

Nov 08, 2021Issa Rae and co. have managed to find the perfect balance in Insecure's characters, crafting deeply flawed but relatable and mostly-likable individuals whom audiences will enjoy following, whether they're cleaning up messes or foolishly creating new ones.

Feb 15, 2021I'm not gonna lie, the first few episodes I had to hold on with my fingers crossed and I'm so happy I didn't give up. This is a show that works up to better and better as you go along. Issa Rae has earned my respect big time. I absolutely love this show and cannot wait til season 5.
