Being Eve

At first, sure, the show, "Being Eve", can be considered boring, far-fetched maybe even a flop, but it also has many merits! When I started watching the show it was only to fill time, but as I viewed episode after episode it became more interesting. I was glad to see that unlike so many other shows it was continual. Instead of finishing an episode with a problem that was forgotten by the next show it kept them, which is somewhat similar to life.

Eve is faced with many problems and has to deal with them as do the teens in reality. So many shows that claim to deal with all the teen issues leave out some of the small yet important problems youths are faced with. And "Being Eve" also provides a light-humour on the subjects, which helps young people, like myself, see the lighter sides of their troubles.

In the episode in which I became hooked, Eve was abandoned and left to be an individual and I truly felt what it was like "Being Eve" just as it feels being a teen!

What a nice change it is to watch a programme from New Zealand that didn't take itself (or its country) too seriously. A deserved Gold Medal award at the New York Festivals Television Programming and Promotion Competition for the "teen programme" category. Especially liked the little broadside shot at "The Piano"... very well done. Good job all round team! Good on ya, mate.

I thought this show was very well written. I like the new type of view it has, its not like stupid topics or anything. Eve makes good points that teens can relate to and isn't some strange teenager we never see. In some shows you watch you think "hey what kind of show is this, I've never met people like them", but this show you can relate to in some way or another. But basically I just want to say I do enjoy this show and would recommend it to another people.

This series claims to be an original teenage comedy/slice of life show, but in truth, it is anything but. There is nothing humourous about this "comedy", which only has a vague connection to teenage reality, and it would only be original if it was done decades ago. If there is anything to be learned from "Being Eve", it is that New Zealand needs fresh, talented blood in its television writing department, and it needs it *now*.

I started watching this television show over the summer. It grabbed me right away. I love how eve is always thinking about things. The way they film the show with her breaking into the dialog with her thoughts is really original. All the characters are well drawn and planned out, and they are all interesting too. Even the characters I don't like are enjoyable to watch. With the loss of David De latour I thouhgt that it might affect the show but really the quality has gone up since last years season. Sam Hooper played by Jay Bunyan is totally different than the character that was Eve's ex(adam. This adds conflict to the show. Fleur Saville and Joanna Morrison are totally perfect for the characters that they play. This is one of my altime favourite shows out there. I would highly recommend it too anyone looking for an interesting show that makes you think and expresses Ideas without preaching.
