Too Much

Jessica Salmon leaves New York after a painful breakup and bets on a fresh start in London, expecting a new romance to fix things. Instead she meets Felix Remen, an indie musician who is endearing, unreliable and very much his own person. The show follows Jessica as she tries to build a life among eccentric friends, awkward first dates and a family that complicates matters. Scenes swing between blunt, cringe-filled comedy and quieter moments of doubt, tracking small missteps more than dramatic turns. The relationship at the center is messy and often funny, and the series prefers open-ended emotional beats over neat conclusions.

Too Much premiered in 2025, created by Lena Dunham and Luis Felber. The television comedy-drama stars Megan Stalter as Jessica and Will Sharpe as Felix, with Richard E. Grant, Stephen Fry and Janicza Bravo in supporting roles, delivering an offbeat transatlantic tone.

As of its 2025 release, Too Much has not been a major awards contender. It has not secured Emmy, Golden Globe or BAFTA nominations, nor major festival prizes, and any formal recognition remains limited at this stage.

The series generated online conversation within comedy circles for its frank take on modern dating and its awkward humor. Megan Stalter's energetic lead work and Lena Dunham's return to episodic television drew attention on social media, prompting fan threads, clips and GIF sharing even though the show has not produced wide-ranging pop culture moments.

Audience and critical reaction has been mixed, reflected in a modest 5.7/10 user vote average. Viewers who enjoy character-driven awkward comedy praise the performances and offbeat tone, while critics point to uneven pacing and occasional thin plotting. Recurring themes include the difficulties of starting over, creative ambition, identity and how messy adult relationships can be.
