Link is copied Comments Lena Dunham's latest project, Too Much, recently dropped on Netflix, and it's safe to say that it's been a hit with fans. The 10-episode series follows New Yorker Jessica, whose life is turned upside down when her seven-year relationship ends. Her boss (and sister's ex) convinces her to move to London to work on a project, believing a fresh start is what she needs to heal. But when Jessica, who is obsessed with British culture, arrives in the capital, she finds that London life is nothing like it is in the movies (Picture: PA Wire) However, when she meets Felix, a troubled indie musician, Jessica finally becomes the leading lady in her own imperfectly perfect story. Complete with a hilarious script, unhinged moments, and passionate relationships, it's quickly become a cult classic for the 30-something viewer (Picture: Ana Blumenkron/Netflix) Too Much isn't the only Netflix show providing the goods for this age group, though. There are plenty of other quality shows that follow a similar - and slightly chaotic - vein. So, if like us, you binged the first series as soon as it came out, you're likely looking for something to watch next. Without further ado, here are 5 Netflix series to watch if you adored Too Much (Picture: PA Wire) Nobody wants this? More like everybody wants this. The 2024 show stars Kristen Bell as Joanne, an agnostic sex podcaster, and Adam Brody as Noah, a newly single rabbi. Despite their cultural differences, the pair fall in love, entering a 'will-they-won't-they' style relationship that viewers root for right from the start. But will their meddling families - who don't approve of the match - tear them apart for good? (Picture: AP) Michelle Buteau is Mavis Beaumont, a plus-size stylist who finds herself newly single at 38. With the help of her chosen family, aka her fiercely loyal besties, Mavis works to rebuild her life. Navigating personal problems and career obstacles, she finally gets the recognition she deserves in the fashion industry. According to Mavis, all you need in life is a 'body-positive attitude, cute v-neck, and some lip gloss.' Survival of the Thickest was created by Buteau and Danielle Sanchez Witzel, and based on a memoir of the same name (Picture: Vanessa Clifton/Netflix) Feel Good is a semi-autobiographical romantic comedy written by and starring Mae Martin as a fictionalised version of themself. It centres around Mae, a Canadian comedian and recovering addict, and George, a middle-class English woman, and their complicated relationship. While Mae's addiction causes issues in their romance, George's reluctance to come out also creates problems for the pair. At its core, Feel Good explores the modern-day world of love, addiction and sexuality (Picture: Channel 4/Matt Squire) Based on the 2009 novel by David Nicholls as well as the 2011 film adaptation, One Day follows the 14-year relationship of Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew. The pair meet at a ball after graduating from the University of Edinburgh, and enjoy a brief college romance. However, when they go their separate ways to pursue their dreams, they promise to meet up on the same day each year. For years, they struggle to admit that they're meant for each other. Will fate finally bring them together for good? (Picture: Matthew Towers/Netflix) Lily Collins stars as Emily Cooper, a marketing executive from Chicago who moves to Paris for work. Swept up in the romance of the 'City of Love,' Emily must find a way to balance her new friendships, relationships, and career. From her complex relationship with her neighbour Gabriel and his ex-girlfriend Camille, to dealing with her icy (yet privately sweet) boss Sylvie, there's never a dull moment in Emily's life. Season five is expected to come later this year, and sees Emily starting another new life in Rome with her new beau, Marcello (Picture: Netflix)
