Baby

Against the prejudice involved about this show, it's a very good show. Takes 2-3 episodes for you to get hooked on to it. But once you are, its so engrossing and involving with the love & drama. Its an emotional roller coaster ride to watch. Amazing acting by all, expecially the main characters.

Really deserves 8-9 stars TBH. And let me just appreciate the OST. ITS SO BEAUTIFUL, such a great selection of songs and at such perfect timing. Just brilliant. Def worth a watch!

I'm only writing this review to clarify a couple of things that I saw in other reviews. Before I that I'll say that this series is by no means perfect, but it's enjoyable and there's enough good material there to binge watch. It's not a must, but it is an intriguing look into a dark world.

People are saying that they don't like that the characters come from wealthy families and have little relatable problems or that the prostitution element is not realistic- FYI - The series is based on the real life underage prostitution scandal that erupted within a wealthy community - the "Baby Squillo Scandal". Wealthy prep school girls from a private school and also appeared to have little problems (on the surface), were at the centre. The only thing that isn't touched upon enough is the corrupt officials that were clients. The real life client list held the names of politicians, police officers, UN Ambassadors etc... and police believe the high profile clients were aware that the girls in the real scandal were only 14 and 15. When you think about Baby in real life terms, it's actually dark and disturbing but it also shows how easy it is to groom teens. It reminds us that young people are not completely aware of the impact of their decisions and what they are really doing no matter how "grown up" they try to act.

Character development is good, it is a fun plot and it is shot very nicely. English voiceover is funny, but I watched it with CC and it is fine. It is all buttoned up in the end so not sure a season 2 is needed, but I would entertain the idea of more misadventures from the cast.

Not quite what I expected: I thought the "poor little rich girls" setting would get old pretty quick but it doesn't; storytelling is pretty slow (shall I say European-paced?) but pretty gripping. Some subplots are less convincing than other but still, this is a show I enjoy quite a lot.

From the first episode I wanted to give this 3/10 but then it got juicier. The story portrays the life of some desperate teenagers with family issues, seeking for attention, starving for love and care which is not too far from reality. Making mistakes, learning how to take responsibility for their own actions, getting to know who they really are... It's not bad if you give it a chance!
