Manual para señoritas

I was so excited to watch this show, especially knowing it stars Nadia de Santiago (who I loved in Cable Girls) and Álvaro Mel (from A Perfect Story).

The story reminded me a lot of Cable Girls in that it was definitely a period piece, but with fun modern twists and some hilarious music choices. The dialogue is fast-paced and really funny at times.

Visually, it's colorful and dreamy. It might not have the huge budget of Bridgerton, but I love the take on 1800s fashion, and some of the dresses were gorgeous.

I did wish for a little more spark between the leads, but Nadia de Santiago had great, natural chemistry with Carloto Cotta as the cute duke.

If you're a fan of Cable Girls, Bridgerton, or A Perfect Story, I would recommend checking this one out. It's fun, charming, and binge-worthy.

Someone put a lot of work into this. The sets, costumes and colors are like nothing I have ever seen before. There are colors in this show that I have never before even seen, in my entire life. Every scene looks like a Monet painting but even more colorful. And it's more than just the saturation turned up on the film. I hope it gets some recognition or reward for this because it's the GOAT. The story is a pale rehash of Bridgerton and probably can't stand on its own but with the rest of the elements combined, it's quite watchable, at least I think so. Watch at least one episode and see if it isn't a novel experience for you too.

From the moment from opening, this is a unique staging that is carried out with brilliance. Fast paced dialogue and plot. That capture the viewer. This set and costume alone, are breathtaking. Let alone the architecture. Every shot is a visual feast. The actress who is the heroine is wonderful. This is a very unique Netflix entry.

There is a Sense of wit and comedy, that is bracing and a breath of fresh air. The idea of a woman's voice and power in a time when neither were valued is part of the fun there is a sense of comedy raced brace against The feeling of a game afoot. The pace is very enjoyable

I look forward to coming back to review the series when I have completed watching it so far the beginning is extremely promising.

The music choices do not always work for me especially the choice to put modern tunes with historical storytelling. But I admire the attempt.

Absolutely adored binging this snazzy little number from start to finish! It was such a visual feast-lavish costumes, dreamy lighting, and settings that made me want to pack my bags and move into a Spanish villa immediately. The cast? A delightful mix of charming, ridiculously attractive men and sharp, charismatic women. The chemistry was electric, and the witty banter kept me laughing all the way through.

The gardens and architecture deserve a whole paragraph of their own-utterly divine! Every scene felt like stepping into a dream: part Bridgerton romance, part Downton Abbey grandeur, and sprinkled with that delightful Jane Austen sass, all wrapped up in a sun-soaked, comedic Spanish fiesta.

Pure escapist joy with just the right touch of drama and mischief. I'm officially hooked-and counting down the days until the next season drops!

My mom (a recent widow) and I (a single girl) both love The Lady's Companion, to the point we didn't want Season 1 to end and are devastated we have to wait for Season 2.... There better be a Season 2. We both greatly appreciated how it tackled big emotions (i.e. Death of spouses, miscarriage, societal pressures, and the search for a husband) without feeling too heavy nor depressing. Rather, it exemplified resilience and the ability for us, particularly women, to find strength in subpar circumstances. I think we were able to relate to the characters, and it provided comedic relief to our stressful lives.
