Calling all female fans who want an exciting and interesting series to watch……grab some drinks and snacks. Settle in.
The Wilds (Season One- 10 episodes) pleasantly surprised me as a captivating and intriguing series; even though it’s described as being a teen drama show on Amazon Prime. I was reluctant at first because of the teen description. However, after watching the first episode I knew from the start that I was in. The subject matter is mature and sometimes dark in nature, making this series more geared toward an older audience or very mature teens. I would not recommend it for certain younger individuals and take care with ptsd that may be triggered by violence and suicide; but there are deep issues touched upon that bend the mind and touch your heart as well. The characters are inviting, enthralling, and invite you to dive deep into their personas to believe who they are. The relationship dynamics between the characters are well acted and these girls are remarkable. I have to say it’s easy to like, love, dislike, loathe, empathize, sympathize, and adore their personas. The feelings change and evolve throughout the series and it’s very moving and personal. This series does have moments that remind me a bit of a few books I have read as well as some tv shows I’ve seen. But even so, it’s remarkably unique in itself and, as a woman, I can say it is definitely worth the time to watch. *Binge- worthy. Enjoy!
( alert …. I have read Season Two is coming. )
