Screwball comedies feel like something from a bygone era, which makes it even more impressive that JESS PLUS NONE understands the formula so well. When Jess, a reluctant maid of honor, finds herself at her best friend's "middle of the woods" wedding, she is confronted by her ex-girlfriend, her ultra successful friend from college, her gay friend and his new partner, and every bad choice she's made throughout her life. Starring Abby Miller (Justified),Matt Walsh (Veep),and Rory O'Malley (Book of Mormon),JESS PLUS NONE manages its tones masterfully while giving us a flawed but relatable protagonist who's simply doing the best she can. If you're not laughing, you're cringing, and that makes it a screwball comedy through a contemporary lens. It works.
