Please Don't Date Him
(2020 - Viki, 10 1:00 eps)

A surprising but too short gem of a romCOM. There are plays on words, silly physical comedy & have you seen the- FL-needs-to-wear-ML's-clothing-for-some-reason trope turned upside down before? A great scene of a photo shoot for the "hot" firefighters calendar. A fun watch for all that, but layered enough to ponder.

FL, an anti-hacker, develops an AI fridge that gets a chip that can check on her friends' dates, but not her guy. We get a little mystery about the off-the-grid ML.

A lovely womance - which I wanted more of & the ML doesn't do all the rescuing. Questions about social media, AI, trusting our instincts, is using private data, even with good intentions, justified? It also looks at misogyny in relationships & the workplace. It was a nice production with great acting!
