Grace and Frankie

Anyone here watching the new netflix comeduy, Grace and Franki, with jane fonda and lilly timlin?
Great series, great story, with a gay punch to it that is reallly cool -
You talked me into it - I will try the first episode

I am just about through it. I started out liking it more but as it's gone on I like it less. I am not going to fault either Jane Fonda or Lily Tomlin, maybe it's because I am not watching it spaced out but it seems a little messy to me. For example, this whole Coyote story line, I don't get it, did I phase out for part of it and am missing something or is it just tacked on & not fleshed out. Furthermore, why hasn't he taken his clothes off? He just seems so encumbered with them and I really would like to see him flex his talent.
I absolutely do not buy Martin Sheen as a gay man. Totally buy it with Sam but if they should just kill off Sheen's character if there is a second season.
I've read Fonda & Tomlin are a bit pissed with wage parity so a second season may become more expensive, which, hey, cutting Sheen's character might be a good cost cutting measure.

Well, on indybro's recommendation I grabbed the first episode and enjoyed it.
It is not brilliant, it IS entertaining and a pleasant diversion at the end of the day.
So much so that I grabbed the rest of the series from usenet and am posting them on another site.
Let's be grateful that something comes along that is more than average

Oh I am not ungrateful perhaps just disappointed. I also legally access the whole series via netflix as intended just as I presume all of us do
Have you watched more than the first episode now? My criticism was only that to me it seemed to become less watchable the further along in the series I got. I am not alone in this, today I read a review wherein the reviewer said not to bother with anything after episode 6 because in his opinion the later episodes ruined the quality he felt present in the first 6 episodes. I wouldn't go that far but…

I didn't mean to suggest you were ungrateful
I watched episode 3 last night - I'll carry on and see what it's like
