Why Are You Like This?

2021 · 1 season

A sharp, cringe-inducing comedy that skewers modern social politics with chaotic, self-destructive characters.

Overview: Penny and Mia are best friends, but they are not good for each other or anyone else. Leaving a path of destruction in their wake wherever they go, they say and do what they want - regardless of the consequences.
How it feels: Satirical, cynical, absurd and light. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Identity, friendship, class, race
Content: Strong language. Mild sexual content. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
