When life doesn't go right
.jpg)
Friends.
Girls.
Sex and the City.
Have any of us ever lived in that kind of apartment?
Are our friends really that supportive and put together?
Is dating in the city that fun and glamorous?
Swipe Left is a show that says, "Hell no!" and aims to show the real New York: a grittier, zanier, and definitely more diverse version of what we see on TV.
After an untimely divorce at the ripe old age of 29, Ella decides the best way to recover her self-esteem is through casual sex. And her friends have chosen Tinder for her to do it. Unfortunately, the only thing more awkward than Ella are her dates.
Don't expect too much help from her friends though: a group of misfits who are way too self-involved. They live in New York City after all. Janet is on a mission to become the famous actress she was born to be. Thereʼs just one problem: her agent, Kronos, who canʼt seem to get her an acting job. After finally landing a spot on "The Great Vegan Bake-off" (although she is neither a vegan nor a baker) she ropes her roommate, Lydia, into being her partner. Meanwhile their neighbor, Al, embarks on ever-changing side-hustles to scramble together enough money to pay the rent.
It all seems to be going well and everyone expects things to work out, but, alas, this is Swipe Left, a show where things never go right.
Shot as a mockumentary, the show follows the characters, documenting their failures as they attempt to overcome their self-made obstacles. In the process, it highlights and pokes fun at everyday absurdities like over-priced lattes, mumble rappers, and online dating. And while the main characters are entertaining and keep us coming back, it's the side characters, who pop up unexpectedly, that make the show what it is. Like the bouncer who wears his sunglasses at night "because he heard that one song that one time." Cue Corey Hart's "Sunglasses at Night." Or a barista who designs ambiguous fall shapes into his lattes, shapes that look unmistakably phallic.
Ultimately, Swipe Left is just a good time laughing at the city we all love to hate and full of characters that you'll never want to date.

Hi and welcome here! When I started on steemit, my biggest problem was to find interesting people to interact with. So, to help newcomers getting started I created a directory with other interesting and or talented steemians to follow or interact with.

Welcome to Steem, Swipeleft! I had to laugh when the Dominican rapper called out, "No one knows what you're talking about!" Wishing you success with your series and I hope that you have a great day.
