The sixth season of Grace and Frankie remains at the same level as the previous one.
It is summarized - in a simplistic way - in a comedy series that deals with subjects of the third age.
We are introduced to highly evolved characters since its first season. In the case of Grace Hanson (Jane Fonda) and Frankie Bergstein (Lily Tomlin), I would say that they have evolved so much that they switched roles and essence. Grace is looser and freer while Frankie, in a way, tries to get her on track. This is amazing. It's wonderful to see how their friendship has evolved so much over the seasons. As always, because they are protagonists, they stand out from the rest. This is a great merit.
Sol Bergstein (Sam Waterston) and Robert Hanson (Martin Sheen) are put in a situation that will result in more love and trust. They did not have many changes in personality and dynamics, but it is still quite interesting to follow their dialogues.
In the plot of the children, there were small noticeable changes, but not the supporting role. Brianna Hanson (June Diane Raphael) and Barry (Peter Cambor) make a very interesting couple here. They have doubts and insecurities hidden behind well-placed jokes on the scene. Coyote Bergstein (Ethan Embry) continues to see a very basic but captivating and funny character. I love him to tell the truth.
Mallory Hanson (Brooklyn Decker), like Coyote, remains the basic and interesting character to follow. Nwabudike Bergstein (Baron Vaughn) and Allison (Lindsey Craft) just married, they are kind of left out in some way and their plots didn't captivate me so much.
Nick (Peter Gallagher), since last season I have a much less love for him, but this season the hatred for him reigned.
A very incredible and pleasant season to spend time and learn a little about the life of the elderly.
I love this show and the cast so much. I think it's a very unique and necessary story, but I feel like this season wasn't up to par with previous seasons. The characters are becoming caricatures of their formerly more realistic selves. It's getting a little too ridiculous and over the top for my taste. I will continue to watch the show, but I think it's best that the next season will be the last.
Just because I would be entertained if Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin read from a phonebook doesn’t mean they should be given scripts that are less enthralling than an actual phonebook.
Professional reviewers don't even bother reviewing this dreck anymore. Lily Tomlin may be the most overrated and inexplicably successful "humorist" since Byron Allen.
