How this season is filed

Filed by Vivian Cross · The Carpet Report

Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney turn an accidental pregnancy into adult rom-com without the Hallmark filter: filthy, tender, Anglo-Irish-American. Short seasons, high joke density, Carrie Fisher's late-career mom. Chemistry as a weapon — love as shared catastrophe management, and the template later relationship comedies keep stealing.
