Tried "The Re-education of Molly Singer," new on Netflix.  I like Brit Robertson.  I wanted to like it.  I just couldn't.  Had to shut it down about halfway thru.  There appears to be an attempt to revive the raunchy comedy, which I can appreciate, but they need to actually be funny, right?  I didn't get a single chuckle out of this, although several groans.  Just nothing about it was working.  Also even if the lead is intentionally unlikable, there's gotta be a little bit about them that is appealing.  An idiot that just keeps making idiotic decisions just isn't entertaining to me.  Maybe this was a redemption tale eventually, but I couldn't hold out long enough to see.

This is a bit like "No Hard Feelings."  While that could've been better, it certainly came closer to hitting the mark.  In this one instead of an adult woman who refuses to grow up dating a teen guy, she is sent to rehab his social status after he becomes a pariah at his school on his very first day on campus, after accidentally maiming the star football player.

The gay best friend character rolls out every cliche imaginable, and again none of it is funny.
