Bagatelles

This is one of those shows that could have been more.

The premise of three young women united by their involvement in shoplifting was very good. The show revolves around the lives of these three characters, in a normal teen drama style exposition. The characters are likeable, and the performances were reasonable, but the story ebbs and flows in the personal relationships, without much strong plot points to make a real impact. Its watchable, but it could have been unique, focussing more on their criminal skills, and less on their personal dramas. Deserving of a second season, to see where it goes. But the second season will make or break this show.

Is it a teen show? Yes. Is it a little cliche? Yes. Does it cover a lot of teen issues now a days? Yes. But the acting is good and the main actresses really have great chemistry together. It really has kind of an 80s movie kind of vibe and the music is excellent. All around a really cute show.

Once in a while Netflix has these little gems that you have to go looking for, like a scavenger hunt if you will, I wholeheartedly recommend you dig up this treasure.

Trinkets is based on a Young Adult Novel of the same name, and it stars Brianna Hildebrand (Deadpool), Kiana Madeira (The Flash), and Quintessa Swindell as three teenagers sent to shoplifters anonymous for some petty crimes, and tho they come from different backgrounds they seem to be great partners in crime.

It's not the greatest series of our generation, but it's a short series that has comedy, drama, a well written story and great performances from the entire cast.

I stumbled upon it after I stopped watching a series on Netflix that sort of depressed me, this was a good medicine.

Because the young cast is so talented and the story is very well written I give this an 8 out of 10.

It is not a must watch, it is a should watch.

Easy to watch, fun and entertaining. Watched it all in one night.

Trinkets at least shines a light on addiction from a teenage perspective. It's a compulsion. A coping mechanism formed by different walks of people for all very different reasons. I applaud Netflix for creating a less glamorous + dramatic story of teen trauma (euphoria, 13 reasons why, etc) that is digestible and enjoyable to watch.
