I just finished seeing the 3rd season of Love which was just released a couple weeks ago. I wish they had a better system to keep track of their shows, such as when a new season is fixing to start, other than us checking blindly, specially since they have so many good shows.
Anyways, in Love we have seen the gradual blossoming of the relationship between Mickey and Gus. In the first season I guess they didn't want to show us Mickey doing drugs and stuff, but she was a mess, so much so that even though we liked the actress from her Community days, Wife was kind of turned off by how shitty and selfish she seemed. Wife has not taken this ride with me because of that, but in season three she has done much growing, she is not spazzing out every other episode, I think it only happened once and I thought it was uncalled for, but maybe if they know the series is ending, it was required to progress the relationship further. They get a little teasing from Gus's family about perhaps having a baby and Gus says that is crazy, they have only been dating 8 months or so, why in the hell would normal people try talking about babies, this isn't a novella with a bunch of horny Mexicans.
We also see Bertie doing some growing of her own. In one episode where she is trying to celebrate her birthday in a traditional American way, nobody in her inner circle is available to party, so she branches out and mentions that it has been disappointing how her job and love life are not where she wanted them to be, that is why she left Australia. She is stuck with that deadbeat Randy who has little to offer her, I personally hate a fucker that won't work, so it is hard to pity his ass when everyone around him is working jobs all day long and he spends his days sleeping at his girlfriend's apartment, then the lump can't even help when the toilet gets backed up, has no idea how shit works. Bertie ends up banging Chris who is another friend in Gus's circle, but at least this one can be and is motivated to go do what he came to do, as we see him training with a stunt team at a water park or something like that.
Everything is going well for the people in the show, even the dorky band has a gig at a bar. Mickey has gotten a promotion at work and is now on the radio, in the last episode Gus has a quick discussion with his boss about his writing talents, seems she wanted a copy of his script to make fun of it, but she was moderately impressed and asked him to join the writing team on her next effort. In the final scene of the last episode we see Gus and Mickey getting married at night by themselves after attempting to do it during the day with all their friends and failing because of distractions. I hope the show comes back, I really enjoy it, the cast is just goofy enough to be entertaining without the main characters at any given time.
