Featured review
Believe the hype and ignore the negative reviews an objective review
This series debuted in 2007 and I watched it for the first time mid June 2018. I was very reluctant being that I'm a Male for one and I thought this show catered to a more female crowd.
After tearing through Deperate housewives I learned recently, NEVER JUDGE A TV SHOW! Yes, it was on the CW I judged that too but I recently watched riverdale season 1 and liked it. Back then TV was better so I was all in missing the days of watching SKAM, the famous Norwegian series.
Being a 30 year old Male is irrelevant! I was hooked immediately! I cared for these characters in such a little time and was invested. I've only seen 7 episodes so I felt it was best to review the pilot for anyone debating jumping in or not because I dont know how other seasons are. Right now its extememly addictive and it is substance it's not just eye candy as many people say. Theres story to be told and felt. I connect with characters feelings with things even though they may live a different life like in all TV shows. So what that their all rich and I prefer the actors to be attractive! I dont want to watch a show with regular looking people like in life---i want to escape life and see people like this that feel how I feel with things. I think that's a vastly overrated opinion saying characters are too good looking. If they werent that would take me out of the story!
Would you like to watch a drama with people that have yellow teeth? Their actors. Anyway, i love very intelligent shows too. I actually prefer celebral series rather than spoofed ones but this is just refreshing in a way that feels light hearted and reminds me of the days when I was addicted to The O.C.
Blake Lively is beautiful and the characters so far have shown redeemable qualities. Watch out for Nate. I have a feeling I'm going to like him even though hes first presented as someone topical. I think theres a lot to him besides looks and the lifestyle that makes him very unique to this show so my money is on him rather than the obvious Dan.
9/10 because I dont know the direction it goes but right now its special!
