"Platonic" Review: Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne's Perfect Modern Buddy Comedy
"Platonic" is a new streaming series on Apple TV+ that explores male-female friendships but plays more like a breezy ode to a stoner aesthetic. The show stars Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne, who while away time bantering and sparring. The show's pleasures boil down to a general mood more than belly laughs, as well as smaller moments. The audience is left to serve as bystanders while Rogen and Byrne discuss anything and everything, in a way that's refreshingly natural but also lacking in any sense of urgency.
