This series is amazing! In less than 4 hours the show managed to weave an intriguing and compelling plot, to present the three mains giving them emotional depth and telling their family issues, providing the sincere point of view of each in a complex story where the truth is never absolute, as in life. This show manage to amuse and move. The energy of the actors shines through in every scene; the beginning is a bit chaotic but when the characters finally take the place of the clichés, telling us about their humanity, it is impossible not to be captured by them. They really put great care in costumes and hairstyles, Becca is absolutely glamorous. The music is also super. The finale screams for season 2!

This show never really got of the ground for me. What made it interesting is definitly the way the story is told from two different perspective. Nice touch on the unreliable narrator concept. But other than that there is not much to talk about. I honestly had to look the show up to write this review because I had forgotten most of it - even though I watched it just two week ago. That is not a good sign. There should be something that would make me excited for a second season. However I do not regret watching it - it did pass the time. Richard Harmon was the highlight of the show for me. If there was another season I would tune in but with no excitment or great anticipation to be honest.

Zoe Christensen (Emilija Baranac) is a Vancouver bookworm high school student. She has made an university ID to study in the library. Her hard-partying best friend Rebecca Li (Jennifer Tong) needs a new fake ID. They join drug dealer Tryst (Richard Harmon) to start a fake ID business.

This is a CBC show that got picked up by Netflix. It has a couple of interesting moves like the multiple point-of-views and unreliable narrators. The opening probably shows too much. It depraves the show of some of its tension. The subject matter reminds me a little of Good Girls. As for the girls, they are pretty good despite being thirty playing teenagers. The first season ends with a promise of more although more is unlikely.

I wouldn't exaggerate if I say this is one of the best series in netflix, I don't know how but it's just really good, I watched it twice in a row, The story telling and how unique it is, the way we see the scene from each point of view is just amazing 👏 , you wouldn't expect this much from a serie I would say with zero marketing, like there's no ads or recommendations from netflix that's what's make it underrated.

I really recommend it to everyone and I'm sure you will finish it in one set and probably re-watch, believe me that's how good the show is.

How are we not all talking about how awesome this show is? Do yourself a favour and watch this show.

I loved the different view points from the characters. Pretty much everything about it: how it was filmed, casted, shot. Richard Harmon, Jennifer Tong, and Emilija Baranac were meant for these roles.

The musical score really fit the series. It is easily the most bingeable show on Netflix (or cbc gem in Canada) right now. Really hoping season 2 comes out soon. As a debut show from David Turko, I'm really setting my sight on all his future series as I've been really impressed with this one.

Just do it. Watch it now. You'll love it.
