About this listen

Excessive is a dark romantic comedy created by Emmy Award-winning writer Dan Robert, starring Chloe Fineman (Saturday Night Live, Father of the Bride, Babylon), Joshua Jackson (Dr. Death, The Affair, Dawson’s Creek), and an all-star cast including Amy Sedaris, Loni Love, Kim Cattrall, Meredith Hagner, Debbie Allen, Heidi Gardner, and Guillermo Díaz.

Paula O’Brien (Chloe Fineman) is a 30-something haunted-house stage manager who has always been told she’s a little “too much”. Over the top. Overwhelming. Just—too much. But what do you do with your “too much” when no one wants it?

After a humiliating turn at the wedding of her childhood best friend (Meredith Hagner), Paula flees Connecticut, leaving her overbearing mother (Kim Cattrall) behind, and follows a series of signs to the city of excess, Las Vegas, in search of her true twin flame.

Enter Victor (Joshua Jackson): a criminally charming bachelor who causes Paula to fall hard. But after Victor vanishes without a trace, he discovers the true meaning of “too much” when she sends thousands of unrequited texts—each message a new stop on this twisted journey through the dark side of romance and magic in Vegas.

Truly not worth the 4 hours

I wanted to like this but it wasn’t at all interesting. None of the characters were likeable and even though it was short, it felt like it lasted forever

This was too chaotic.

I wanted to empathise with Paula as a fellow 'too much' but the title definitely did her justice.
There was a lot of chaos around Paula. Were all these interactions real, or were some imagined? It was hard to keep track of what was going on.
