El baile de las luciérnagas

This is absolutely perfect in every way. The 80's flashbacks are spot on and full of nostalgia, and all the flashbacks caused no confusion it is done so well. Katherine Haigel and Sarah Chalke are perfect together, chemistry is amazing! Love everything about it. It is funny, sad, devastating, and so relatable!

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.

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.

Let me start by saying that I did not read the books or have a frame of reference going into this show. I loved it. I watched it over a day. It was so good. I love the time jumps. I know some people complained about them but they were easy to follow. The girls that played young Tully and Kate were amazing while Sarah Chalke and Katherine Heigl shined. I was left on the edge of my seating wondering what would happen next and cannot wait for another season.

This is a lovely show about friendship. Charming, sweet, it hits all the high notes.

Heigl is great. She really is such a good actor. Sarah Chalke puts in a solid performance-a little too cutesy.

Some of the script is a little too trite. I hated the stupid Manhattan clothing try-on montage. It made Chalke look so dopey. I wish screenwriters would stop with that stuff; it is so overdone.

Is it wrong to think of this as the Beaches of 2020s?

We haven't had a good friendship story in a long, long time. I did read one of the books in the series and the Netflix series does do a good job of interpreting the novel.
