I love it to bits, but it's very high on cheese, (as well as being very moving and funny).

I pretty much cried at every episode! But often in a good way. Grin

It’s a bit marmite - if you like it then you really love it. If you don’t then you think it’s absolute dross.

I loved how the stories all weave together and you get to see the characters at different ages and stages of their lives within the same episode. It’s very cleverly done.

I adore it, in all it’s speechy schmaltziness.

I have feelings for Jack, severe fanny gallops for Kevin, and a huge girl crush on Young Rebecca.

The music is fab, too.

And YY to the first episode being brilliant. It’s masterful.

It’s like a warm hug. A grown up Gilmore Girls kind of vibe.

I adore that show. The only downside is that it plays on a lot of things my husband finds super hard and doesn't want to think about - passing of time, kids growing up, bereavement and loss. I think most women spend an awful lot of time gaming all those what-ifs in their head, but men don't, and it punches him really hard. I'll often turn around to find him with tears pouring down his face, partly because a lot of the sibling issues are his irl. So I'll have to watch alone, its really broken him.

I didn't like it.
then others were saying how good it was, so I tried watching it again.
Still didn't like it.

You will not regret it. Love love love it. It's like the first five minutes of up. Im yet to watch a better love story, in relation to every kind of love. Enjoy 😊

Kevin is super hot
You don’t need any other reason

AutumnSummersBuffysCousin · 04/09/2020 21:17

Watching it right now, Kevin is beautiful. Even if just for that it’s a winner.

ThePenIsBlue · 04/09/2020 22:16

Best thing ever. So cleverly filmed, written, the way it weaves all the stories together. I watch with my husband. He enjoys it too, but says Jack makes all normal husbands feel inadequate. He’s just so perfect. 😁
