It\u2019s a crucial moment \u2014 necessary, even \u2014 but it\u2019s always the hump you have to endure in order to get to the part where everyone learns their lesson, embraces their truth, and kisses their hot crush to the triumphant swell of an impossibly catchy pop song that will nonetheless fade from memory by the time the credits roll. Without that annoying blip of tension, that payoff won\u2019t be half as sweet \u2014 or, truth be told, half as earned. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Such is the conundrum facing \u201cPartner Track,\u201d Netflix\u2019s frothy new comedy based on Helen Wan\u2019s novel about lawyers fighting tooth and nail to become partner, if only they could stop getting distracted by each other. Ingrid (Arden Cho) is the firm\u2019s determined golden girl, especially because she\u2019s always willing to work overtime and do everything her mercurial boss (Matthew Rauch) tells her, no matter how morally questionable. As she tells us in the pilot\u2019s peppy opening narration, she chose to go into Mergers and Acquisitions because that\u2019s what all the best corporate lawyers do. That she\u2019s often compromising her values or throwing friends like Rachel (Alexandra Turshen) and Tyler (Bradley Gibson) under the bus to climb the company ladder is, she reasons, an inevitable hazard of the job. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    This could make for an interesting conflict, especially when paired with Ingrid struggling to reconcile her ambition with the the firm\u2019s complete bungling of a racist incident involving her biggest, frattiest competition (Nolan Gerard Funk) midway through the season. Ingrid\u2019s frustration at being the office\u2019s token Asian American woman when all she wants is to be thought of as a lawyer, period, gives the show some of its best and most insightful material. Getting to that point, though, means wading through the first few episodes, which have enough trouble moving beyond \u201chello, fellow kids\u201d dialogue that some curious viewers might\u2019ve already t<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Ingrid\u2019s flaws at work might be easier to take if her romantic life at least had enough fizz to keep the show afloat. But here, too, \u201cPartner Track\u201d falls short, throwing rote dialogue masquerading as \u201csteamy banter\u201d at a love triangle without any heat. On the one hand, there\u2019s besotted rich guy Nick (Rob Heaps), the seemingly perfect fit for Ingrid who nonetheless, as TikTok would put it, gives her \u201cthe ick.\u201d On the other is Jeff Murphy (Dominic Sherwood), the ostensibly dashing London transfer. Jeff apparently crossed paths with Ingrid years earlier at a wedding in a way that\u2019s had her fantasizing about him ever since. But it\u2019s hard to buy that when Cho and Sherwood have so little chemistry that even the show\u2019s ample use of sexy slo-mo can\u2019t sell the sexual tension the pairing so desperately needs. If it weren\u2019t for the scripts insisting that Ingrid and Jeff are end<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>, in fact, it would be easier to believe that she might be destined for another kind of opposites-attract romance with Z (Desmond Chiam), a client\u2019s son whose ideals keep clashing with the firm\u2019s lack thereof, and with whom Ingrid has the biggest spark even in their brief scenes together.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    It\u2019s a shame that so much of the show never quite gels, given the potential laden in its premise, characters, and supporting ensemble. Turshen, Gibson and Funk are especially good as their characters stumble and get more screentime away from Ingrid \u2014 which is, perhaps, indicative of how much time Ingrid spends being one of the least compelling parts of her own show. If \u201cPartner Track\u201d were a 95 minute movie, it would\u2019ve had to make sharper edits in its story and meandering dialogue. It might\u2019ve found a bouncier rhythm to take it from one scene to the next. But with 10 episodes to fill, \u201cPartner Track\u201d spends way too long showing Ingrid stuck in immoral quagmires to make her eventual redemption all that satisfying.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    <em>\u201cPartner Track\u201d is now available to stream on Netflix.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n  !function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    if (f.fbq) return;\n    n = f.fbq = function() {\n      n.callMethod ?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n    };\n    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n    n.push = n;\n    n.loaded = !0;\n    n.version = '2.0';\n    n.queue = [];\n    t = b.createElement(e);\n    t.async = !0;\n    t.src = v;\n    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n  }(window, document, 'script',\n      'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '586935388485447');\n  fbq('init', '315552255725686');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
