The thing with this show and a lot of Netflix shows these days is that they're trying to do a lot of things at once. G&G doesn't really have a target demographic. At first you think it's a family show about a single mom and a daughter, then it turns into teen drama, then a political drama what with the whole mayoral elections plot, then a murder mystery, a show about teens discovering their sexuality and so on. What I'm trynna say is I got whiplash. But I'm also not complaining. Even with all that it's trying to do it has somehow managed to be impactful in ways I never thought of and yes there is the whole Taylor Swift controversy and that comment was definitely not okay, but it also shouldn't undermine the entire show. It has brought up so many issues that go unspoken in many households otherwise. Ginny's struggle with her biracial identity, the constant need of just wanting to fit in and be included, was relatable in a lot of ways to a lot of teenagers. I would also like to point out that the first episode DOESN'T DO JUSTICE TO MARCUS' CHARACTER. He comes off as the typical bad boy stereotype which isn't him at all, but you only come to know that in the later episodes. Yes Ginny is self centred and a lot of times it annoyed me, but what with everything she is dealing with about her dad and her long lost family it is kinda understandable, coz she felt so invalidated her entire life, that when she finally got attention she made it all about herself. And I also love how there is a backstory to everything, that explains why things are the way things are. And also my man Joe deserves a happy ending! But overall what makes this show a good binge is it's perfectly paced plot and reveals and (sometimes dark) humour. I would totally recommend this show . If you don't go in with a mindset to pinpoint a singular sexist remark and hate watch the entire show because of it you might actually end up enjoying it.

This show is not perfect. But it is very enjoyable and light hearted and helps you take your mind off things. My favourite characters are Winston and Schmidtt, cause boy are they funny. I know this is unpopular opinion but I actually kinda hate the main character of this show, the alleged 'New Girl'. Zooey Deschanel tries too hard to be quirky and funny and sometimes that just doesn't do it for me. Nick Miller is actually a really great character, except for when he's with Jess (Zooey Deschanel). Cece is also great in her own way and all in all this show just works. For me. If you wanna call my sense of humour broken, then go ahead but I'm not alone in this. I know there are a large bunch of people out there who found this show amazing and for those of yall who found it cringey and cheesy, I'm not saying it's the best piece of television or anything, but it's definitely worth a shot if you just wanna lighten your day or something. Just don't hate on it.

I really loved this show. It was the perfect heartwarming tale of two strangers crossing paths and falling for each other over 8, 20 minute episodes. Not unnecessarily dragged, but also not too short to omit portraying any sort of character development. I loved both Dash and Lily's characters cause they were both real, in a way that won't make you hate them but sort of make you realise what you're doing with your life. This was like a 160 minute long rom com and for the first time I didn't hate something for being long. The show was perfectly fantastic all throughout it's duration. So in the end I might recommend this show to anyone who's looking for a good Christmas holiday flick, instead of watching Holidate, watch this! You'll love it .

Even when it doesn't show you all that much about Ariana's life and her struggles like in Taylor Swift's documentary. It's like experiencing all of her concerts which I never had a chance to go to. It really felt like I was there with all of her fans in the crowd singing her songs at the top of my lungs. And it felt amazing. Ari is an exceptionally talented singer and very well deserves all the credit that she gets. Her performance skills are amazing and her voice is unbelievably beautiful even after doing 81 concerts or so. It is very difficult to find her level of talent. There are also a few sweet moments like when Mariah Carey invited her to be in her All I want for Christmas video, and how adorably excited she got about it, since Mariah is one of role models. And that last Thank u, Next was the most amazing performance ever, showing the world that she's not afraid of their opinions and she loves her fans with all her heart and her team for standing alongside her all throughout her journey. This states when you google it that it is a 'Concert Documentary' it doesn't promise to be anything else, if you were disappointed by the fact that you didn't get to see Ari as a person and who she is doesn't make sense. This is her talent showcase and an inside look at her rehearsals and performance team. I see reviews where people are comparing it to Taylor Swift's artist documentary, where her growth as a person was shown. But nowhere was it said that you'd get a super personal peek into Ari's life like that. P.S. I also kinda can't stand the way Ariana talks, sounds fake, but what do I know I only adore her for her singing voice. Both the documentaries are different in their own ways and I love them both.

If you go into it with the right expectations, this movie is bloody brilliant. It really is what it promises to be, 'wildly entertaining'. I thoroughly enjoyed the over-the-top fashion drama. It's a Disney live-action movie done right! Just like my other favourite: Maleficent. It's a wild ride with an amazing rock punk soundtrack and a perfectly paced plot, that doesn't drag. The acting is stellar, you'd find it incredibly dramatic and over-the-top at times, but that is also quite enjoyable if I might add. Emma Thompson as the Baroness really killed it. You'll really love to hate her and that's a sign of great acting. Emma Stone is already one of my favourite actors so I knew this was going to be good right when I saw the trailers, she really gave a different side to Cruella de Vil's character and made her much more likable and fantastically evil as well. Overall I would definitely recommend this movie, it's a fun time.

If you're looking for legendary scares like the bent neck lady and the floating man and hands that grab your feet from the edge of the bed then this is NOT the show for you. Cause in this show it's all about the story and how it connects with everything that's happening. This is not as scary as one would expect after watching hill house. The only remarkable ghost from this series was (that guy who looked like he was wearing anime glasses). Now apart from that it's all of your elementary grade faceless ghosts. So you might wanna watch it for the plot but if you're here for the scares,this is not it for you. It's just an age old love story that keeps jumping between the past and the present. However I also agree on the fact that the show touches on some very important issues faced by people for eg. guilt, trauma, emptiness, mistaking possession for Love and the truth that real love is selfless. The story that starts out as horror story gradually turns into a tragic romance. Which most of us didn't expect coming to this show, with the mindset of hill house and that is the reason for all the dissappointment surrounding this show. But I personally liked this show and recommend that it's worth watching, if you're in the mood for some tragic romance.

I somehow think this is the Spanish version of thirteen reasons why. I can find a bunch of similarities between both the series. Eg. How Marina is like Hannah the whole first season and Samuel is the boy in love with the dead girl like Clay all through season 1. How everybody has this inherent sweet image of Marina in their heads when in reality, they find her out to be much more complicated than any 16 year old teen. And then the next seasons are all with no actual plot, just trying to drag the whole teen drama essence of it. And try to fit in as many social issues faced by teens in it. I'm not denying that I enjoyed it, I certainly did. But the fact that the age of all the characters who are getting into these dramas is just 16 or 17 is actually quite disturbing. I actually had the same issue with 13 reasons why. But overall I would like to say that if you're a fan of teen drama, romance, murder mysteries then this is the show for you.

This movie is legit the best teen best friends flick ever made!

This is a really good show. I don't know why it doesn't have the best ratings. But in terms of what it promises to be, it's a pretty good thriller. A perfect binge. I personally wanted to watch this because Paul Wesley was in it. But even though his character didn't have that big of a role in season 1, I still found myself sucked into the plot. How it shows a modern day take on fairy tales and reveals their dark undertones. I also love how the story keeps switching between different storylines of different people. If you constantly focus on a single person's story after a while it gets repetitive and boring, but that's not the case with this show. It keeps you interested with it's perfectly paced plot and doesn't bore you with unnecessarily dragged scenes and fillers. Overall I recommend this show to anyone actually. You'll like it. I'm not saying it's the best piece of television but it's definitely worth a watch.
