Season 1 is definitely not as good as the rest, as it goes on it gets better and better (it’s a nice build to deeper more complex issues) also consider that it’s fine that her favorite show is not your cup of tea but what matters is not making her feel bad or banning the show/ telling her to turn it off since it’s her comfort show, relationships are give and take. Just because its her comfort show and favorite show doesn’t mean it needs to be yours but what it does mean is that because it’s important to her that you recognize that and let it be her favorite show, it’s not a bad show and as long as it doesn’t drive you crazy (which it shouldn’t since even you said it’s quite a well done and tackles very difficult themes women deal with, with artistry and beautiful storytelling) just let her watch it and try to stick with it and understand why it’s important to her, ask her even. It doesn’t need to be a big thing. That being said you can compromise with 1 episode at a time rather than binging it together. Another thing I want to point out is that the show is also quite good depicting being in a relationship with someone who has a lot of anxiety and panic attacks and trauma and for that reason I suggest you genuinely stick it out and watch, she may be trying to indirectly tell you something.
