You can make the jokes, just by laughing at the creeps!

The CW is known for shows like Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries, Arrow, and Riverdale. And now, one of the network's most underseen yet near-perfect comedy series will be available to stream for free soon in the United States: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is joining the Pluto TV catalog in the United States on August 1, 2026.

I wonder, what were the storylines that bothered you the most about the show?

For me it's two things, and they dampen my enjoyment of the show a little bit:

- The whole business with Darryl's baby. Surrogacy is a questionable topic for a reason, and the way they did it on the show, with Heather not even having had her own kids yet, is even more questionable.

- The ending with all the three guys fighting for Rebecca. I know a lot of people love her "choosing herself" in the end, but the fact that three of her exes just run back to her after all the damage she's done (and after the damage they did to her) feels kind of contradictory to the message of the show, imo. Dealing with your mental illness and discovering who you truly are does not automatically mean all your past destroyed relationships are going to be mended and people are going to throw themselves at the new enlightened version of you; it actually feels like the kind of a delusional thing oldRebecca would tell herself. I feel like Greg is the worst example of this, they shouldn't have recast him and made him go back to confessing his love for Rebecca. Sometimes our shitty actions make us lose important people in our lives and there's no going back and acknowledging that is also a part of healing.
