Even its central concept, about two friends 'benefitting' with no strings attached, isn't exactly fresh. Which is ok if the show was trying to achieve something that was truly shocking. The scene was written exclusively for its shock value. And when you realize that the father doesn't get a second scene in the show, you sense a problem. It doesn't lead to anything nor does it reveal something new about Jiah (Jikki Nair), the show's protagonist. But then you watch it again and notice that there's nothing else in the scene. They drone on about his date and her new friends and when the scene ends, she replies, 'to answer your question, it's going pretty amazing.' The effect the show is going for is cool and casual just a father-daughter duo knocking back after a tough day at work. 'How's your sex life?,' he asks her, matter-of-factly. F*ck Buddies, we see a middle-aged man on his couch drinking a glass of scotch, when his daughter walks in, sits next to him and takes a swig.
