Immer für dich da

This show was incredible.

First of all the cast is great, beautiful female leads, representative of real women, not just dolled up and botoxed. They cast women and men of the right age to play the right part.

You could see the acting sometimes was just true feelings, i mean towards the end those tears just felt true.

I have not read the books so i cannot compare the two but damn the show was good.

This show has brought me to tears, it made me laugh, it goes through so many stages of life. I feel you can realate to the show because even if you haven't lived the same things, the base of life is still the same and shenanigans are still the same.

I got really attached to the characters even if each one were sometimes annoying, they were just portrayed as real people that are not always stable and that's life.

I just loved it!

So many times this series hit spots of my own trauma at various times that caused me to rethink my values or where I sit with that in society. Not many series looks at life from a female perspective of friendship for decades, I can relate on various levels but also not as I've never experienced a best friend over such a long period of life. This series looks at the ups and downs of life in relationships and working careers, as well as how we grow with these over decades. How responsibility grows with this as an adult. I am not a parent, but I feel the emotions of people who have been raped as trauma at any early life (I've experienced that) and how that can impact you as you grow, and how always being the person who pleases people because you don't want to upset them in a marriage (that speaks into my marriage that broke down), and how do you weigh career in life versus personal feelings - no one ever gives you the rule book on this. This series speaks into various people's lives male and female, gay or straight from a perspective that many people go through. Cant't wait to see what season 3 brings.

I just finished binging this over a 24 hour period and honestly loved the whole thing. Having grown up in the 60's and 70's, I found it a realistic representation of that time period as well as the years past that. I had read the book and I spent way too much time waiting for certain events to happen before I realized there has to be another season. I wasn't sure about the casting at first, but in the end I thought the two main stars were perfect for their roles.

My problem is with some of the reviewers who freely admit to only watching a couple of episodes or in one case fifteen minutes. To admit this and then rate the show low doesn't seem fair-especially when it did take a bit to sort out all the characters, storylines and and time periods. Personally I had no problem with the timelines shifting back and forth. I get it, not everyone likes that in a show, and everyone has their own ideas of how it should be done. I was happy with it. Not only was I happy, I can't wait for season 2!

Not sure how my review will do this show justice but here we go... We follow Tully and Kate over 3 different timelines - as teenagers, as 20-30 somethings, in their 40s - with each decade's storyline cleverly intertwining across each episode. The timeline jumps around but it is so well done that it isn't confusing like some shows.

The casting is brilliant, Katherine Heigl and Sarah Chalke work beautifully together, as do the younger actresses cast to play their teenage selves.

And yes I cried. I don't think I got through a single episode in the second half of season 2 without bawling. I had read the book so I knew what was coming but seeing it all on screen made it even more emotional.

I also cried at the lack of a Kate/Tully relationship in my own life. Never had a friendship like they do in the show and that made me sad.

All in all a fantastic programme that will make you laugh, cry and reflect on your own life.

Oh and Dancing Queen will never sound the same again.

I was excited to see Katherine Heigl back on screen. At first, it was cute, seemed like it was going to be pretty cliche' maybe boring. But, I knew I'd finish it because I've always loved Kathryn and I'm glad I did. It ended up being really good and I can't wait for season 2.
