The US romantic movies/romcoms are so cringe because a story that in the 90s or 00s would have focused on a good looking guy and girl in their 20s is now centered around 40-somes with crows feet. That no romcoms with Kristen Bell comes to mind. Yeah, she's cute but she's twenty years past being ripe and that fact that there is such a big contingent of perennial daters in their 40s that the show justifies it's budget and existence is fucking sad.
