This is a solid, fun holiday romp. There is also a lot going on. We're following three siblings who have gone home for the holidays, all arriving early toward the beginning of December. Each one is at an impasse in their work and love lives. Rafi just publicly proposed to his girlfriend at a work holiday party and she turns him down. Birdie is a stand-up comedian who hasn't had success since her Netflix special three years ago and has casual sex frequently. Liz is a show runner sho can't come up with a second season to her breakout hit and might also have a thing with her lead actress. At home, their mother, Babs, is putting on a good face for her kids, but signs point to something being up with her. Classically, everything needs to blow up before it can fall into place.
