I love Groundhog Day-ish entertainment, so I guess I'm the target audience for this intriguing comedy-drama. It features a quirky, rather abrasive woman (amusingly played by Natasha Lyonne) who finds herself continually dying and returning to her birthday party.

As is typical of the genre, her goal is to find out why. Along the way she finds strange connections and odd inconsistencies in her time line.

It's all terrific until the final episode, when it becomes clear the writers were more into the ride than the resolution. Russian Doll is one of these fantastical narratives that use neither sci-fi (the repeated day is caused by quarks!) nor fairytale logic (it was all a spell), but just kind of say, well, this is what happened and why do you need an explanation.

That sort of ending is always frustrating but not always destructive, and as with the movie Colossal, I was ultimately entertained enough by the story to not let loose ends and plot holes bug me too much.

While the first season appeared to be a self-contained miniseries, there are two more seasons planned, so perhaps we will ultimately be given a quark or curse explanation for it all. But even if not, as long as it continues to be so entertaining, I'll keep watching.
