Episode list

reception

The first season of the series was rated on Metacritic with a Metascore of 65/100 based on 20 reviews.

Axel Schmitt from Serienjunkies.de said about the series that “The pilot episode of the new FX comedy You're the Worst [...] could have been terrible according to the premise. But it is not. Even though not all jokes are ignited, the series creator Stephen Falk gives his characters enough humanity to be able to find them sympathetic. ”He also writes that“ the pilot episode of “You're The Worst” would have only enjoyed what bad people they are both protagonists are, the concept would have failed mercilessly. However, since the author and series creator Stephen Falk allows his characters to have real, deeply human emotions, the figure drawing works. The problem is more the jokes that hardly ignite. This is partly due to the poor script. ”According to Schmitt,“ the performance […] is largely convincing, the technical implementation is quite acceptable. Los Angeles is captured quite neatly in a short montage, the choice of music made me nod in places. The sex scenes are also more explicit than I have seen in any other cable format. More reasons to switch on: Jimmy's buddies Edgar and Killian. There is slight interest after the start. "
