Its a gloriously filthy take on a single woman in a big city, think Broad City/Louis CK standup but on steroids. There's also dark underpinnings involved to why she's so dysfunctional, which slowly let themselves be known as the series goes on. Here's the trailer but it doesn't do it justice, they gave it that cheesy rom-com edit feel.

It's built up from a one woman play from the main actress/writer but you couldn't tell; its pretty wide screen for a television comedy and a gem of a tv show. And it's one of the few comedies in recent memory where it had me in shock on some, "Oh shit, they went there!"
Only 6 episodes, give the first one a try...if Atlanta's my fav comedy this year this is firmly a #2
