A Brutally Honest Review Of Too Much On ...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

You asked, we delivered. Ever since Lena Dunham’s new Netflix series Too Much dropped, Spillers have been sliding into our DMs dying to hear what Spill hosts Laura and Em think… and today, we’re going deep.

We unpack how the show draws from Lena’s real life, how it stacks up against Girls, and why it’s not really the rom-com it’s being marketed as. From the scenes we loved to the ones that completely wrecked us (yes, one of us cried), it’s a brutally honest review with zero filter.

Whether you loved it or are still unsure what you just watched, this is the post-watch debrief you didn’t know you needed.
