Rom.com is a Web Original comedy miniseries produced by Cracked, set in the offices of fictional dating website Findlove.net. Originally airing in March 2014, subsequent seasons have aired in February, just in time for Valentine's Day.The show is a satirical look at the modern dating scene, which is done without showing a single actual actual date. Trends in profiles are mocked, as are people's superficial preferences and hypocrisy about their own issues.Given Cracked's unceremonious firing of its entire video department in December 2017, it's safe to consider the series cancelled.

All Men Are Perverts: Years of working at FindLove has made Josie realize this. Even a decent guy is just a moment away from a dick pic.

Bland-Name Product: FindLove is OKCupid. Kindlin' is Tinder. The clickbait titles make this more clear, explicitly referring to episodes as "The difference between OKC and Tinder."

comment
Scunthorpe Problem: Cracked has a filter that prevents any links from being posted in the comments to prevent spamming. The post never actually gets posted and is discarded like it never existed. Which is normally fine... except that it sees the title of the series as a link, thus discussing the show in the comments is almost impossible.

Straight Gay: Max is revealed as gay in season 2 with no fanfare. It's just a thing, not a defining aspect of his personality. In the season 2 finale, Rush is revealed to be "super-gay", but pretends to be a womanizer because it reflects better on Kindlin'.

Mean Boss: Competent as she is, Elise can be pretty unpleasant to her employees. In season 2, she gives Max and Josie a deadline to find a way for FindLove to upstage Kindlin', threatening to fire the one who doesn't deliver. Made worse by the fact that she knows that the two sites are owned by the same umbrella company.

Playing Cyrano: A variant in episode 2 of season 3. Max and Josie are tasked with running a trial of a date assistance service where they use earphones and camera glasses to guide a man and a woman through their dates and feed them information from the other's dating profile. The daters actually get together, but Josie and Max's advice becomes more of an annoyance that they bond over instead of a source of helpful information.
