Great acting, melodrama, and interesting series.

3.5 out of 5 stars.

Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington delivers a powerful performance. Playing controlling mothers. The story starts out good. Reese playing a controlling mother. With one of her daughters despising her mother. And Kerry playing a mother that never stays in one place. Kind of slow. But the story is engaging.

Mixed feelings
raquelmachadofernandes20 March 2020
I read the book and loved that every characater had so many layers. Here everything looks a bit rushed and a clichê but of course, this is what happens when you imagined already the entire book universe in your head. But the production is good, good actors and I can actually remember some entire dialogues from the book being said here.

Follows the Book!

So far, I'm enjoying it as much as the book. Reese Witherspoon is playing against Kerry Washington is just perfect. So glad they made this into a series. Love it so far!

Great pilot!
Skylight7731 May 2020
A good surprise, the actresses and actors are great, the filming is gorgeous (bravo to the late Lynn Shelton, gone too soon). Reese Witherspoon is perfect as this rich white mom, it's really funny, and Kerry Washington shows us a different type of character far from 'Scandal'. Here she's a broken woman and a rebel artist. But things aren't that simple, all the characters are very complex.

The kids stories are also very interesting, it feels like 13 Reasons Why or Sex Education at times. They all have their own stories, their relationships change over time, we never know what's coming next.

And it's really hard to tell who set the house on fire, it could be anyone. Hoping the finale will be as epic.

Good acting and cardboard characters.

This is clearly well filmed and well acted; unfortunately, the writing has produced a bunch of one dimensional cardboard cutout characters. I hops this show gets better. Perhaps, the writers should have tried to make real complex people and focus less on creating "types" of characters.
