Anne with an E

There aren't enough words to describe how much this show means to me. Watching this show has brought me so much hope and happiness. I will forever be eternally grateful for this show and I can only hope that Netflix can find it in their hearts to give us one more season. If you're looking for something lighthearted to watch or just a new show in general, please watch Anne With an E. You won't regret it. The storylines and characters are amazing and they show just how much hard work was put into creating this show.

I was such a huge fan of the Megan Follows depiction of the beloved character Anne. This depiction is also superb. So moving and so much more emotion than the former. They cannot be compared, one no less better than the other. Different but oh so excellent and beautifully acted. I love it!

This is one of my favourite shows.

I loved the old version and this one is a beautifully updated version of that story. I see a lot of hate written from purist with no scope of imagination, who dislike this. However, it is about time that we accept the fact that rural 1900's Canada was not all flowers, red roads and poetry.

This modern version does not look through rose coloured glasses so we can edit out what we don't want to admit (like LGTBQ people existed back then too, First Nations and African people were wronged terribly and women were oppressed) and yet while addressing these injustices it was still true to Anne of Green Gables core ideas. The love of family and friends.

The chemistry between Marilla, Mathew, Anne, Gilbert and Diana is perfect and I can't think of a show that has moved me to happy tears more than they have. It is an injustice to trash this show just because it doesn't fit perfectly into the mold of the old show or book. After all Anne didn't fit into anyones mold and that is why so many people love her.

I read recently that the show has been cancelled and a deeply disappointed. This show was so good at portraying a real family, with real struggles all the while keeping with what makes Anne of Green Gables so special, that I feel as though I am losing a part of mine. I will miss it.

This is one of the most beautiful shows I have ever had the pleasure of watching. I have read the books and though it differs from the books it truly is the closest to perfect television we have gotten in the past 10 years or so. It tackles modern day issues that have been alive throughout time and does so in a thought provoking fascinating way. The acting and production are second to none and it truly deserves another season to continue the storytelling. Anne Shirley Cuthburt is a passionate individual and so are her fans! She is a true role model for every young person today.

And not just in terms of cinematography (which makes you want to pack your bags and head to Prince Edward Island right this second), but also in terms of the the heart and soul that has been put into the show which is clearly evident. Without spoiling anything this show has -

• Heartfelt storylines
• Stunning soundtrack that can move mountains
• Gorgeous cinematography
• Realistic takes on identity, bullying, prejudice, racism, sexism
• Dialogues that resonate deeply
• Cathartic narrative
• Comedy that not only makes you laugh out loud but is also so humane that it leaves you smiling long after

Above all, in a time where tv shows and movies are serving way too much dark and dystopian content, to the point they've crossed the saturation point, Anne with an E remains realistic AND hopeful, which makes its effects long-lasting and its content ageless. Go binge it on Netflix right now. You'll not regret it.
