"You're the Worst" is a modern look at love and happiness told through the eyes of two people who haven't been very successful with either. It's the story of Gretchen and Jimmy, fear, heartbreak, romance, sex, food, Los Angeles, Sunday Funday, friendship, and the fact that sometimes the worst people make the best partners. Narcissistic, brash, and stubborn Jimmy Shive-Overly has inadvertently found himself paired up with cynical, people-pleasing, and self-destructive Gretchen Cutler. "You're the Worst" is an original comedy from writer and executive producer Stephen Falk, and puts a dark twist on the romantic comedy genre.

Don't be fooled into thinking it's just a comedy about awful people... It's actually a much darker examination of all the unpleasant aspects of life... But don't let that scare you, it is still deeply funny and extremely well-written. Go to Full Review
Linda Holmes NPR 09/08/2016
The people on the show are cynical, but the show is not. It may not be confident in the ability of its characters in the short or the long term to act on their decency...but it is fully confident of their humanity and would have no direction without it. Go to Full Review

8.6/10
The reason why the series remains one of TV's most slyly affecting comedies: The joke is, pain and laughter often emerge from the same broken places, and You're the Worst is as funny as a knife in the side. Go to Full Review
