MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

mysoluis This show was so good! Good adaptation, great acting, awesome producing... It has full potential to had have another season...

journeytothecentreofthetardis This show just kept on giving. The pilot truly doesn't do justice the addictive and intriguing nature of the show - and yet I was sucked in from the first trailer. The aesthetics, the acting, the story. Every character and scene is memorable, with plenty of complexities to flesh them out. I waited impatiently for the full season to air after seeing the pilot and I'm more than happy to do the same again. I really hope this gets picked up for another season somewhere. People are missing out on a true gem otherwise.

sylviamoch I started watching this past week and couldn't wait to see the next episode so I watched Season 1 within 3 days. I love, love, loved it. The story line and the actors played their part perfectly, I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. Monroe, Pat, Rose, Celia, Kathleen all the characters came to life and the actors played their parts perfectly. I loved the costumes, cars, the movie sets everything made me go back to that period in time. Please, please let us see more with Season 2. I am anxiously waiting to watch more. Thank you Amazon for a job well done.

TanakaK The concept for such a series is strong and intriguing. Sadly, this pilot does not represent a very good effort. As is so often the case these days the emphasis seems to be technical rather than talent. The scenes are nicely dressed although often lit too strongly and too cool. But the bigger problem is that most of the characters are just that: characters. The dialog is insipidly cliché. The actors all look and act like 21st century teenagers.Translating period pieces onto any screen in an engaging way has always been challenging. Translating Fitzgerald doubles that challenge, as his stories are virtual bear traps for lesser talents to create comic strips like this.I don't know where all the glowing reviews are coming from. I cannot imagine many others saw this pilot any differently than I did.
