A good mediocre show...
To be fair, the book wasn't much better and shared most of the serie's weaknesses (in fact the series was better in some aspects). This show is an enjoyable enough watch overall and I'm a sucker for the long-time friends trope so I'm being generous with my rating.The main problems though? Both the writing and the acting left much to be desired. I could go on about it but I feel like others in the reviews already expressed my own opinions pretty well. I will say though that some plotlines absolutely needed to be cut and were sooo irrelevant to the story (cough cough mick and tul thrown in in the last eps)

Enjoyable overall
I almost clicked off the first 2 eps multiple times. The story just didn't suck me in, I would feel the urge to skip ahead or stop watching. I'm glad I stuck with it in the end, it started getting good for me in ep3 and the series as a whole was enjoyable. I do wish the secondary couple had an on screen declaration though but I still enjoyed their story. Not gonna lie, the English did cringe me out a bit, but I think people on the internet are making way too big of a deal over it. It truly didn't impact the story that much.Was this review helpful to you?
