5/6/2023 0 Comments Happy endings showIt certainly isn’t one of the funniest TV shows I’ve ever seen or anything, but the episodes are “ah-maz-ingly” consistent, almost always providing at least a few good laughs in each. While I enjoyed Happy Endings: The Complete Series, it is a bit hard to explain why. Other main cast members include Eliza Coupe, Damon Wayans, Jr., Casey Wilson, and Adam Pally. Two or more plot lines are featured in most episodes, focusing on different combinations of the friends. Otherwise, Happy Endings is just a sitcom about friends and the situations they get into. While the two quickly bury the hatchet for the sake of their other four friends (who they share), the Alex/Dave relationship is the one semi-serialized aspect of the show (though even this doesn’t last for long). Unfortunately, the two don’t get a happy ending as Alex runs away at the altar. The series opens with the wedding of friends and longtime lovers Dave (Zachary Knighton) and Alex (Elisha Cuthbert). Happy Endings aired on ABC for three seasons and 57 total episodes from 2011-13. It is definitely a hidden gem though and I think most fans of network TV comedies will enjoy it. While I wouldn’t say it is a classic comedy that everybody should watch, it is a very good one that fits nicely into the second tier of sitcoms. Happy Endings is a series that I heard was supposed to be much better than you would expect from its title but until now, I never got around to watching it. ![]() While I do love the recent trend towards more serialized comedies that has been taking place recently (such as The Good Place), I do still love mostly self-contained series like Scrubs and How I Met Your Mother.
