Sometimes I had trouble buying them even as friends.

I'm only loving Tomlin, so far. I want to love Fonda, but I find her character more annoying than funny and Fonda seems awkward.
The writing is just not very good. Sheen and Waterson are pretty terrible.

Just catching up on binge-watching this, so many months later.
It's worth it, just to see Lily Tomlin. Jane Fonda has many good moments, but virtually every Lily Tomlin moment is breathtaking in its aptness, its poignancy and its comic vision.
Also, June Diane Raphael (Jane Fonda's businesswoman daughter) is my new favorite thing. The episode with her and the dog was the best non-Lily, non-Jane episode.

Agree, and will add that I loved the episode when they got stoned.
Literally made me laugh out loud.

I also recently binged this, and I think the problem is they tried structuring a dramedy like a sitcom. The sitcom pedigree of the creators had them relying on a lot of their bag of tricks, and as soon as it started getting too serious they would put a laugh in, like Frankie's on-again off-again hearing problem.
It got better as the season went on, but I kept thinking how much better Transparent found comedy as a drama, then this was able to land the drama as a comedy. Plus, the more they tried to expand into the other characters, they kept hitting running time issues that prevented them from exploring them further.

I wasn't happy with this show's first few episodes, and said so here. But I finally saw the last few episodes and it improved greatly as it went on.
