Why this pick
Like About Alex, it gathers estranged college friends under painful circumstances, letting old loyalties, romantic history, and adult disappointment surface through intimate group conversations.
02
Why this pick
Its naturalistic performances, emotionally tangled friendships, and lightly comic awkwardness match About Alex’s interest in affection and resentment coexisting in close quarters.
03
Why this pick
Another ensemble of longtime friends whose supposedly supportive weekend exposes buried grievances, fragile couples, and the uneasy gap between concern and self-interest.
04
Why this pick
A relaxed but searching relationship drama with an overlapping friend group, conversational realism, and a wistful focus on adulthood’s restlessness and emotional evasions.
05
Why this pick
It shares the blend of humor and serious emotional vulnerability, approaching depression and damaged connection with warmth, discomfort, and character-first intimacy.
