NEW YORK (AP) – Gillian Jacobs admits to warning her mother about the explicit content in her new Netflix series “Love.” She didn’t have to do that when she was on network TV.
“The content is more adult. My mom is telling me she’s telling all of her friends and family and co-workers to watch the show,” explained Jacobs in a recent interview.
“I keep being like, ‘But, you know, you know that there’s some, you know, some adult content in here.’ She’s like, ‘They know, they know.’ I’m like, ‘OK, but there’s some scenes in there I don’t know if I want your co-workers to see.”
“Love” follows Jacob’s Mickey and Paul Rust’s character, Gus, two mismatched misfits who embark on a relationship. The first season is available on Netflix on Friday.
This new gig also has Jacobs feeling like she got invited to a party with the popular kids in high school.
