With its nonstop wisecracks about hooking up, body parts, and pop culture references, Significant Mother feels like a Millennial version of Three's Company.

The one-note premise wears thin very quickly because there is no way that anyone can root for the relationship at the center of it. It is not cool to sleep with your best friend's parent.
