When Does Conversations With Friends Come Out On Hulu

Okay, let's talk about something important. Something really important. When did Conversations with Friends hit Hulu? This is crucial stuff, people.

The Great Hulu Mystery of 2022

Remember the build-up? The anticipation? It was like waiting for Christmas, but with more angst and way fewer presents. I was checking Hulu daily.

The actual date? May 15, 2022. Yes, it’s been a while. Feels like a lifetime ago, doesn't it?

But seriously, where were you when you first watched Conversations with Friends? I need to know!

Was It Worth the Wait? My Controversial Opinion

Now, here’s where things get spicy. Prepare for my unpopular opinion. Drumroll, please.

I wasn't completely blown away. I know, I know! Hear me out.

The book, by Sally Rooney of course, is amazing. The TV show, in my humble opinion, just didn’t quite capture the magic.

Don't get me wrong, the actors were great. Joe Alwyn as Nick? *Chef's kiss*. But something was missing.

Maybe it's because I had such high expectations. Maybe it's because I read the book too many times. Maybe I'm just being difficult. Probably that last one.

Still, I watched the whole thing. Twice.

Frances: Relatable or Just Annoying?

Let’s talk about Frances. The main character. The reason we're all here, really.

Was she relatable? Or just incredibly frustrating? I swing between both, depending on the episode (and how much coffee I've had).

Her awkwardness? Spot on. Her inability to communicate her feelings? Also, spot on. Maybe *too* spot on. Like looking in a mirror, and I don’t always like what I see.

And don't even get me started on the whole Nick and Frances dynamic. So much yearning. So much unspoken tension. So much…drama.

Marianne vs. Frances: A Showdown for the Ages

Okay, let’s be real. We all compared it to Normal People. Right?

It’s inevitable. Same author, similar themes. It's like comparing apples and slightly less appealing apples.

Marianne from Normal People just hit different. There, I said it. Maybe because she was more…outwardly vulnerable? Or maybe because *Paul Mescal* is just ridiculously good.

Either way, Normal People set the bar high. Really high.

Rewatch Value: Yay or Nay?

So, is Conversations with Friends worth a rewatch? That's the million-dollar question.

Honestly? Probably. If you're in the mood for some introspective drama and complicated relationships, go for it.

Just don't expect it to be a joyful, uplifting experience. It's more of a…contemplative, slightly depressing one.

But hey, sometimes that's exactly what we need. Right?

Plus, there are worse ways to spend an evening than staring at Joe Alwyn's face. I'm just saying.

So, to recap: Conversations with Friends premiered on Hulu on May 15, 2022. And whether you loved it or hated it, it definitely sparked some conversations. Mission accomplished, Sally Rooney!
