The Surrogacy

I kept watching episode after episode in the hope that the next one would be better. But it definitely didn't. So I gave up after episode 5. The storyline and storytelling is incredibly weak and all the episodes I watched felt dragging. It could have been great if the storytelling and the storyline was clear and the acting was good. It felt like there were too many characters that had a big part in this. I usually finish movies and series that I watch, even if they are not that good, to give it a chance. But this one had 24 episodes! Way too many if you ask me. For the people that want to finish the series, I hope it gets better! But something tells me, it won't.

Terrible acting! They rush through scenes but it doesn't matter. You will likely turn the channel just as fast anyway. The actors and not authentic and the story line is abysmal. Men try to kidnap a lady while she's riding in the car with her dad. He stills the gun and kills one kidnapper and wounds the other. Instead of leaving the daughter tries to resuscitate the kidnapper I guess so he can try again, smh.

The accents are off and the characters are all way too helpful like the friend that wants to sell her business and give up her life to bail her friend's dad out of jail. I need friends like that.

For a series that felt on one level like a cautionary tale about surrogacy, you would think the writers would at least have done some basic research( middle school biology). There was one continuous comment about the embryo splitting to twins which could only result in identical twins..but the twins are obviously not identical( a boy and a girl). The characters discussing this would have had basic knowledge of this. I ended up fast forwarding through most of the episodes but gave up after I realized after getting to 10 that I wasn't even halfway through. The series needs some serious editing to make it into a tolerable cheesy soap opera. On the positive, unlike other reviewers, I did like the lead actress. There was some other side plots/discussions about indigenous culture and racism that could have been interesting but given my wariness of the writers credibility on other topics, I couldn't trust them on this either. In summary, lots of missed opportunities.

Prepare to be captivated by a gripping tale that delves deep into the shadowy underbelly of surrogacy, unearthing a web of astonishing secrets, twisted lies, and jaw-dropping revelations that challenge the very fabric of society. This riveting series explores the harrowing world of "colorism" and racism, shining a harsh light on the plight of indigenous people. With its thought-provoking narrative and masterful writing, it skillfully leaves viewers questioning their own beliefs and perceptions. Brace yourself for an unforgettable journey into a realm where nothing is as it seems, and prepare to have your mind blown by a story that demands to be seen.

The main chick Yani acting needs help. Her expressions, her gestures her everything lol... needs help. The show seems to go on and on by episode getting no where! A lot of people roles in this series could have been omitted. The whole seria could have been over in episode One... but nooo they drag it out to a complete mess... the show drags to the point where it's hard to watch and stupid things start to happen because they need to make episodes. 24 episodes of complete stupidity.... They talk about this "Indian" chick Yani. But honestly she looks Hispanic/Mexican. I'm no racist AT ALL. However I wish they could have found a better Surrogate because someone about her is not sexy or appealing to the eye.
