Palm Springs is still a comedy, don't get me wrong. But it's using the time loop idea to think about something interesting. A time loop is a form of meaninglessness, really, and fighting that requires figuring out what you're going to get out of bed for every day. It's not that once Nyles is nice and is redeemed, all his problems are solved. He's mostly pretty nice all along. It's that both of these people have to decide how to add some kind of stakes to their own lives, because if they wanted to, they really could just float in the pool and drink at the wedding forever, and they could even have each other's company along the way.
