Ich und die Walter Boys

After reading the book, I was waiting to see the series. Nikki Rodriguez as Jackie is probably an okay choice, but not with Noah. He is supposed to be 17/18, not 25. He looks way too old to be in high school and Nikki looks 16, I don't think they have chemistry at all. She doesn't have any sparks with Alex either.

Will is supposed to be I think 21. Here he looks like 30, and his fiance looks old to be 21 too.

Okay, after finishing the whole thing, most of the actors were a miscast, they just don't go well with each other. I kept thinking "was she a diversity cast, was he a diversity cast?" Actors make or break a story and it feels like with different people this series would/could have been more enjoyable and believable.

So the show is a teen love triangle which like ok we get it, I didn't expect much from it honestly but what bothered me is the script is so badly written and the acting just pushes me to the edge. Like its so predictable and cliche. Every time I'm like come onnnn. Another thing is that the show moves super slow like there is no actual event happening and it's the same boy fight over and over again. And yet no one blames the poor Jackie. Also it is very comparable to the summer i turned pretty which is so much better and fun to watch tbh. But overall I gave a 5 cause even though all the cliche bad acting I still wanted to see the ending but still anyone who has watched good quality film/series probably wouldn't be able to watch this.

Where's her inheritance?

Seems if I appointed someone a guardian, I would also leave money for her upkeep, especially if I were wealthy, and aware that the family are farmers.

The uncle has it, and is keeping it as leverage?

Is he the land developer trying to purchase their land?

Is he a good guy or a bad guy?

This really annoys and frustrates me, although I love the Walter parents a lot.

Not really sure that this deserves a second season.

Since I'm only on episode 9, maybe it's all addressed in ep 10?

Guess I should finish it all and come back to leave an additional review based on the whole of it.

This is pretty average, maybe even a bit below par. Gets some points because it has Sarah Rafferty in it, and she was great in Suits.

They all basically look the same age i.e. In their 20s! I can't work out the age gaps between the siblings, it's not really clear to me or maybe it was explained at the beginning but I wasn't paying attention.

The acting is pretty bad, the cast lacks any sort of charisma. The storyline is flat and scripting is poor. I'm only half way through but will see it to the end because it doesn't require much thinking as only 10 episodes. It's good background noise. I'm not expecting any major cliffhangers or anything big to happen.

I agree with the other reviewer, the whole entire time I was watching the show I kept on wondering why Jackie could not help out the Walter family with some money from her inheritance. Her Mom was supposedly successful in the fashion industry. There is no way her parents would not have made some kind of accommodations in case of an emergency. This made no sense and really took away from the believability of the story. I never read the book, so was not familiar with the story line or the characters. Some of the acting seemed rather stiff, I am not really sure if this show is worth a second season.
